Only on 13: Video shows moment mom was shot to death in front of children in NW Harris County

A surveillance camera recorded the moment a woman was shot to death in front of her two young children at a Willowbrook-area apartment complex.

Houston police say the woman was shot by someone she knew around 8 a.m. on Wednesday at the Willow Green Apartments near 249 and FM 1960.

The video, obtained exclusively by Eyewitness News, shows a man walking into the woman’s second-floor apartment.

After the door closes, you can hear a man saying, “Oh really?”

A woman’s then heard saying “Go ahead” three times before a gunshot rings out. It’s followed by eight more gunshots as the victim screams in agony.

The man is then seen leaving the apartment and calmly walking away a mere 20 seconds after he arrived. (Eyewitness News is blurring his face until police name him a suspect).

Neighbors told ABC13 they’ve seen him at the victim’s apartment before, and one said she’s seen him camped out in the parking lot in a bid to keep tabs on the victim.

Eyewitness News spoke to two women who said they were flagged down by one of the victim’s sons.
