HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) – A man died after being shot on the street outside an Airbnb in northeast Houston, police said.
Investigators said a pool party was taking place at the rented house on Orville Street near Homestead Road, just north of Ley Road in the Trinity Gardens neighborhood.
Police were called to the scene shortly after 11 p.m. on Sunday.
When officers arrived, they found a 20-year-old man lying on the street who had been shot multiple times.
People from the party reportedly tried to help him before paramedics arrived, but unfortunately he was pronounced dead at the hospital.
According to HPD, everyone investigators spoke to at the party said they did not know who the man was or what happened.
“He was lying in front of an Airbnb house that was being rented and there was a pool party going on,” said Lt. JP Horelica. “There were several people at the party, but no one at the party knew him or has admitted to knowing him yet.”
Other than the fact that he was about 20 years old, police did not release any further information about the victim.
