Toddler, 2 Men Shot In Thursday Drive-By Near Bellaire

HOUSTON, TX — Two men and a 3-year-old child were victims of multiple drive-by shootings at 6030 Dashwood Drive near Bellaire on Thursday evening. The child and both men were taken to area hospitals for treatment of non-life-threatening wounds.

Houston police said the 21-year-old male victim was standing with a group of people outside of Tony's Market when a gold Cadillac approached. One or more persons inside the vehicle fired shots at the male. The suspect vehicle then drove down the street, made a U-turn and headed back to the shooting location.

Prior to arriving, more shots were fired from inside the Cadillac, striking two innocent bystanders (28 and 3-year-old males) inside another vehicle. The Cadillac's occupants then fired again in the direction of the first victim before fleeing the scene southbound on Rampart.

Anyone with information in this case is urged to contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
