Rapidly evolving situation. Not clear at this point if terrorism or not. Shooter in parking lot of mall shooting at motorists. Black man with a revolver is what was reported a 0625.
Witnesses are reporting much more gun shots than a revolver would indicate.
Shooter is dead.
HOUSTON - Houston Police say an active shooter opened fire on moving traffic north of West University early Monday.

The Houston Fire Department confirms that six people were taken to the hospital with various injuries, but the extent of the injuries is not yet known.
Several vehicles parked near the scene had bullet holes and busted windows. The injured patients were said to be drivers or passengers in the vehicles that were struck.
Police and firefighters responded to Weslayan near Bissonnet at about 6:30 a.m. after reports of a shooting victim. That's when authorities discovered there was still an active shooter situation with multiple victims.
Police tracked down and "engaged" with the shooter, who was eventually "naturalized," HFD said.
Authorities say the scene is secure but have not yet confirmed if the suspect is dead or alive.
Several ambulances and other emergency vehicles responded to the Randalls grocery store shopping center shortly before 7 a.m. Bellaire, West University and HFD worked together to take the victims to the hospital.
There are unconfirmed reports the suspect was hiding behind a tree when an officer took him or her down. The suspect's vehicle was located near The Oaks condominiums on Law Street, which remained locked down as of 8:10 a.m.
There are no reports that multiple suspects were involved in the incident, police confirm.
Roads in the area remained blocked off at this time. Avoid Weslayan between Westpark and Bissonnet until further notice.

Please, some good Texas boy will put him down quickly. HPD is not like LA and told to "redeploy to create space"!
On every question of construction let us carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed.

They could have sold tickets for the opportunity to shoot a lawyer.
Just another of the many reasons to always carry.
No doubt we will soon hear that the police murdered him because he hadn't actually shot at ay of them.
They are now reporting 9 hurt. The shooter was a "disgruntled lawyer" and a Texas CHL holder. His last name is DeSai and he is not black.
Disclaimer: The above is not holy writ. It is just my opinion based on my experience and knowledge. Your mileage may vary.
Shooting a Houston lawyer could be a lucrative pay-per-view event...
