The victim, Trevon Deandre Vann, 23, of the above address, was pronounced dead at Ben Taub General Hospital.

HPD Homicide Division Sergeant B. Harris and Senior Police Officer M. Waters II reported:

Mr. Vann, his roommate and two other friends were at Vann's apartment when a gunshot was fired.  The friends initially provided vague information about what occurred and then became uncooperative in the investigation.

Another witness reported hearing a gunshot and a scream.  The witness saw a black male get into a maroon compact car parked in front of Vann's apartment and flee the scene.  A short time later, two black males were seen carrying Vann and putting him into a silver Saturn, with a third black male as its driver.  The three males were Vann's friends in the apartment.  They were driving Vann to Ben Taub Generel Hospital when they met up with an ambulance, which then drove Vann to the hospital where he died.

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.
