Gunshots fired at KTRK abc13 studios

Scary moments at the KTRK abc13 studios on Bissonnet this morning as gunshots were fired into the station's parking lot. There were no reports of injuries.

A Houston Police Department spokesperson told mikemcguff.com it happened around 5:40am. Police say a witness saw a person point and fire a weapon into the parking lot.

Five vehicles in the parking lot were damaged as a result with several having windows shot out.

At least some of the event was captured on surveillance cameras. A police investigation is underway.

Just last week, KTRK staffers experienced another gun related event when reporter Demond Fernandez and photographer Gerzain Garcia had a gun pulled on them by a homeowner in Huffman, TX. The Harris County Sheriff's Office arrested that man on an aggravated assault charge earlier this week.
