Footage Captures Chaotic Southeast Houston Shooting That Left One Dead, 13 Injured
HOUSTON, TX — A mass shooting at a family gathering in Southeast Houston early Sunday morning has left one person dead and 13 others injured, according to the Houston Police Department.
The incident occurred around 12:50 a.m. in the 6000 block of Cherryhill Street.
According to HPD Assistant Chief Patricia Cantu, the violence began after an uninvited guest was asked to leave the party.
As the individual was departing, he allegedly opened fire on the crowd. Several partygoers returned fire, escalating the situation into a widespread and chaotic gunfight.
HPD officers arrived on scene within three minutes of receiving the initial emergency call.
Upon arrival, officers encountered a highly volatile and active scene. Gunfire was still being reported in the surrounding area as police worked quickly to secure the premises.
Victims were found across multiple locations around the party venue.
Emergency medical services transported several of the wounded to nearby hospitals, while others were driven to medical facilities by private vehicles.
Notably, three shooting victims were dropped off at a Jack-in-the-Box restaurant located on Long Street near Loop 610.
In total, 14 individuals sustained gunshot wounds. One person has been confirmed deceased, while several others remain in critical condition undergoing surgery.
The remaining victims are reported to be in stable condition.
Multiple individuals have been detained for questioning, though authorities have not confirmed whether the suspected shooter is among them.
Investigators are currently working multiple connected crime scenes related to the incident.
HPD is urging anyone who attended the party but left before police arrived—or who may have transported victims to hospitals—to come forward.
Witnesses or individuals with information are encouraged to contact the Houston Police Department Homicide Division at (713) 308-3600 or Crime Stoppers at (713) 222-TIPS (8477).
“This is a very active and complex investigation,” Assistant Chief Cantu stated. “We’re doing everything we can to identify all involved parties and ensure those responsible are held accountable.”
City of Hammond, Louisiana — At approximately 11:50 p.m. on February 24, 2026, officers with the Hammond Police Department responded to a report of shots fired involving one possible victim.
Upon arrival, officers located a 14-year-old juvenile female, identified as Tyronai Reed, suffering from an apparent gunshot wound.
Emergency medical assistance was rendered at the scene, and she was transported to North Oaks Health System for treatment.
Despite life-saving efforts, Reed later succumbed to her injuries.
Detectives assigned to the department’s Criminal Investigations Division launched an immediate homicide investigation.
During the course of their investigation, authorities identified 18-year-old Demontez Treyvon “Trey” Robinson of Hammond as a suspect in the shooting.
While actively working the case, officers observed a vehicle traveling at a high rate of speed and conducted a traffic stop.
Robinson was identified as the driver of the vehicle and was taken into custody without incident.
Robinson was transported to the Criminal Investigations Division for questioning. According to investigators, Robinson admitted that the firearm discharged while he was handling or “playing with” it, resulting in the single round striking the 14-year-old victim.
Robinson was subsequently booked into the Hammond City Jail on one count of Negligent Homicide.
Authorities emphasize that the investigation remains in its early stages and additional details may be released as they become available.
