HOUSTON, TX – According to Houston Police, homicide detectives are investigating an apparent murder-suicide after a man and woman were found deceased inside an apartment at 1810 Main Street.
Officers were called to the 1810 Main Apartments around 10:40 a.m. and discovered the bodies of a male and female inside the unit. Preliminary information indicates the female suffered gunshot wounds, and the male died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
A resident who did not want to be on camera said they woke up to commotion and saw several emergency vehicles outside including SWAT. “It sounded like something big was going down,” the resident said, adding that they later received an email advising residents not to leave their apartments. “Now I’m not surprised… this is living in downtown. That’s probably what you expect.” The resident noted that while the apartments may appear nice, incidents like this can still happen.
The street was blocked off by authorities during the response. No further information has been released at this time.
If you have any information, you are urged to contact the Houston Police Department or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
