On Friday in Spring, police responded to a shooting near Hickory Twig Way and Cypresswood Drive. Harris County Precinct 4 deputies arrived and found a man with gunshot wounds. He was later pronounced dead. Two men were taken into custody, as detailed by CW39.

The suspects fled on foot, and constables set up a perimeter search. Both were later found in an abandoned house on the 300 block of Cypresswood Drive. The incident may have involved an attempted purchase, but details are unclear, according to Click2Houston and CW39.

Click2Houston reported that a shooting during a Facebook Marketplace meetup prompted a response from 50 officers. Suspects wearing dark hoodies and black pants were seen fleeing before being found in a deteriorating house with several teenagers. Cpt. Jose Garza stated, "It appears that it was being used as a party, drug home." Eight teenagers were detained, and authorities are working to contact the property owner. The connection between the meetup and drugs remains under investigation. One person in the victim’s vehicle was unharmed.
