The suspect, Isaac Biais, 21, is charged with murder in the 184th State District Court. A booking photo of Biais is attached to this news release.
The victim is identified as William Hall, 65.
HPD Homicide Division Detectives W. Elliott and D. Hobson reported:
HPD patrol officers responded to a shooting call at the above address and found a man, later identified as Mr. Hall, suffering from at least one gunshot wound. Paramedics pronounced him deceased.
Preliminary investigation revealed the man was approached on the street by two suspects and a possible argument ensued before the shooting. The suspects then ran into an unknown black sedan before leaving the scene and driving eastbound on West 34th Street.
