Summary of Incidents
October 26, 2025 At approximately 1:10 a.m., Harris County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to a shooting at a large Halloween party in the 9200 block of Cornette Drive. Approximately 100 individuals were reported to be in attendance after the event was advertised on social media.
An altercation occurred between the suspect and others present, during which the suspect fired a handgun into the crowd, striking three male victims. All three victims were transported to area hospitals in stable condition.
The suspect fled prior to deputies’ arrival. The suspect is described as a Hispanic male, approximately 16–19 years of age, thin build, 5’6” in height, wearing a black skeleton costume. He was accompanied by a female wearing a military-style costume and a second male wearing a green hoodie with a live lizard on his shoulder.
November 1, 2025 At approximately 11:30 p.m., Harris County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to reports of gunfire at 27499 Nelson Street in Spring, Texas.
Initial information indicates a large gathering involving juveniles was occurring at the location when a physical altercation took place, followed by multiple gunshots. Witnesses reported hearing gunfire but did not observe the shooter. No confirmed victims have been located at this time; however, investigators were advised a potential gunshot victim may have been transported from the scene by private vehicle. Area hospitals were checked with negative results.
November 2, 2025 At approximately 12:36 a.m., Harris County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to a shooting at the Fall Creek Sports Complex located at 8910 Wyatt Road. Preliminary investigation indicates a large group of juveniles gathered at the property following a Halloween party in the Summer Creek subdivision.

All victims were transported to local hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries.
Investigators continue to actively pursue leads in all three cases. Assistant Chief Nanny urged residents, particularly young people, to think before engaging in violence or sharing event details online that may draw unsafe crowds.
“We cannot normalize these kinds of events,” Nanny said. “We all share the responsibility to make sure our teens come home safe.”
