HOUSTON: Nine people were shot and wounded, one critically, in a Houston neighbourhood on Monday by a lawyer who had issues with his law firm, authorities said. When officers arrived, the suspect began firing at them, Police Chief Martha Montalvo said at a news conference. Police shot the man, whom Montalvo did not identify and who later died at the scene. Numerous weapons were found at the scene, a bomb-squad robot is looking at a Porsche that’s believed to be the shooter’s and officers also were examining the suspect’s residence, Montalvo said. Some witnesses have described the gunman firing dozens of shots at cars passing through a condo complex, near the affluent West University Place community.
