A triple shooting in Northwest Harris County has left two people dead.
Deputies say the ordeal began when the shooter went to his wife’s home at 11100 Louetta at around 10 a.m. Thursday.
Jose Castro, a witness, heard at least five gunshots at the apartment complex but wasn’t sure where the shots were coming from.
Police found a man wounded from a gunshot in the parking lot and a woman dead on the steps of this building.
The gunman reportedly had shot his wife and then shot her boyfriend.
She died at the scene and her boyfriend was wounded. He was taken to an area hospital.

But meanwhile, a second scene was developing.
Deputies were knocking on doors looking for the suspect, but the shooter fled the scene.
Juan Rubalcaba talked to the suspect moments before he died.
“I put my window down and he pointed two guns at my face,” Rubalcaba said.“I saw him shaking.”
The crime tape went up moments after Rubalcaba left to call 911.
“Someone was shooting and I knew it wasn’t fire crackers,” Bruce Reynolds said.
Reynolds was scared so he stayed home, but deputies went right up to the alleged suspect and found him dead from what they believe is a self inflicted gunshot.
Officials say he shot and killed himself in the parking lot of a church on 17100 Hufsmith Kohrville.
