mass shooting of the day, 5 shot in Houston, 3 motorcyclists shot & killed along I-45, 2 injured

3 dead in highway shootings involving outlaw motorcycle gang members in Southeast Texas, authorities say

Authorities found three men suffering from gunshot wounds, and emergency medical services arrived and “began life saving efforts,” police said. Two of the men, ages 43 and 69, were pronounced dead at the scene. An injured 61-year-old man was sent to Hermann Hospital in Houston, according to the post.

“The three victims were male, all riding motorcycles, and all wearing clothing and insignia that indicated they were part of an outlaw motorcycle gang,” Huntsville police said, adding that the incident and a shooting that took place in “Montgomery County are related.”

Huntsville police said they are working with the Texas Rangers on their investigation.

The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office earlier in the day said it responded to a shooting incident where a man died along I-45.

A 32-year-old man was shot Friday after 11 a.m. along I-45 in Spring, and later transported to a local hospital where he died from his wounds, the sheriff’s office said.

Horrible. Could have easily involved other drivers or caused a massive pileup on I45. tanyev Apr 2023 #1
