HARRIS COUNTY, Texas — Harris County Sheriff’s deputies are investigating a shooting that left one woman dead Saturday night in north Harris County.

Deputies responded to the scene Saturday night in the 16900 block of Rolling Creek Drive near FM 1960. Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said the woman was pronounced dead after her body was found in the hotel parking lot.
