HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) – A man was arrested and charged after he showed up at an H-E-B store carrying a gun, creating a brief “safe” situation, according to the Houston Police Department.
SkyEye13 was over an active scene at an H-E-B store after a security guard reported a man with a gun on store property.
SkyEye13 was flying over the active scene Tuesday evening, showing law enforcement vehicles gathered at the store’s entrance.
HPD confirmed to Eyewitness News on Wednesday that they responded to the store at the intersection of Fountain View Drive and San Felipe Street.
