HARRIS COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) — A man was shot in the driveway of his home in the Northcrest Village subdivision in northwest Harris County on Tuesday morning.
Harris County Pct. 4 deputies responded to a home in the 21900 block of Catoosa Drive after a woman reported that her husband was shot and possibly robbed.
The Harris County Sheriff’s Office said a 58-year-old man was shot by two suspects in a dark-colored sedan. He was taken to the hospital in stable condition.
In an update from HCSO, investigators said it actually appears the man was shot during a drug deal that went wrong.
Officials said the man initially just told them he was robbed, but later changed his story and said he and two men were making a drug deal when the robbery took place.
Neighbors told ABC13 they heard three gunshots at 9:15 a.m., which is very unusual for the subdivision.
One neighbor said the family who lives at the address moved in just a few months ago.
So far, deputies have not been able to provide a good description of the suspects or the vehicle.
Investigators were looking for any surveillance cameras in the area.
The home where the shooting happened is in a cul-de-sac, so the suspects would have had to pull in, fire the rounds, turn around, and drive out the same way they came in.
