HOUSTON — Houston police said two men were killed in a shooting Monday at a northwest Houston apartment complex.
Police said they responded to the scene in the 8600 block of Pitner Road around noon and found one man dead in the backseat of a car. He's been identified as Keishawn Cornett, 20.
Another man was taken to an area hospital but police later said he died. His name is Lee Edwards, 19.
Investigators said the victims were in the parking lot when an unidentified man approached them. At some point, an argument started that escalated to gunfire.
According to police, Cornett tried to drive away but wasn't able to get far.
Police did not provide a description of the shooter or a motive for the shooting. They believe the suspect left the apartments in a small, black SUV.
Anyone with information in this case is urged to contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
Editor's note: A previous version of this story reported that a juvenile was killed in this shooting but police later updated the information saying both victims were adults.
