Police were called to a residence in the 5700 block of Diamond Oaks Drive North after a report of shots fired, Alexander said. “It appears our officers returned fire during the incident,” Alexander said, although the outcome of those shots was unknown. A woman was found dead inside the home and a man was found fatally shot in the driveway of the home. An elderly woman who called 911 was shot but was expected to survive, Alexander added. The suspect was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound at another location near the home, Alexander said. Near his body was a military-style rifle and a pistol. The Texas Rangers will investigate the shooting and provide more details as they become available, Alexander said. The shootings come as the nation grapples with widespread gun violence in both small and large cities. As of late Saturday, there had been 302 mass shootings across the U.S. this year, according to the Gun Violence Archive. The organization and CNN define a mass shooting as one in which at least four people, not including the shooter, are shot.
