A drive-by shooting at an east Houston apartment complex left one woman dead on Tuesday afternoon.
Houston Police Department spokesman Victor Senties said the shooting happened in the 5300 block of South Lake Houston Parkway. The call came in at about 12:15 p.m.
A resident of the apartment came home to find his girlfriend shot to death in a bedroom in their second-story apartment. The boyfriend quickly ran out of the home to seek help and called the police, Sgt. Mark Holbrook, of HPD's Homicide Division, said.
According to police, witnesses saw someone in a newer-model, black Chevrolet Camaro with standard rims and tinted windows firing multiple rounds into the apartment.
Angel Woodward, a cousin, identified the victim as Lee Kendra Childs, 19, and the mother of a 2-year-old daughter.
The child was not in the apartment during the shooting.
Woodward described Childs, a cashier at Walmart, as "amazing. She lit up the room and was one of a kind. She would do anything for her daughter."
Woodward also said she didn't know why Childs was shot. The young woman didn't have an issue with anyone that would cause the victim, her cousin said.
Police have not revealed a motive at this time. Anyone with information on the drive-by shooting are being urged to contact HPD's Homicide Division at 713-308-3600.
