HOUSTON — In a troubling incident early Sunday morning, six men were shot and wounded at an after-hours nightclub in Houston. The shooting occurred around 3 a.m. at a venue that was reportedly still serving drinks despite city regulations that prohibit bars from operating at that hour.
Assistant Chief James Skelton of the Houston Police Department addressed the media, providing details about the ongoing investigation. Four of the victims remain in critical condition, while the status of the other two is currently unknown. Skelton indicated that preliminary findings suggest that the individuals involved were familiar with one another, labeling the incident as an “isolated attack.”
“This type of establishment contributes to crime within our city,” Skelton remarked. “The Houston Police Department is committed to targeting these locations and shutting them down, as they are often associated with DWIs and assaults, as evidenced by the events of the night.”
Authorities are currently searching for two suspects who fled the scene in a black vehicle. Police are reviewing surveillance footage and interviewing witnesses to gather more information.
The shooting highlights ongoing concerns about after-hours clubs in Houston and their potential role in escalating violence.
As the investigation unfolds, the Houston Police Department urges anyone with information to come forward.
