January 18, 2024 - Houston police homicide detectives have released a composite sketch of a suspect wanted in the fatal shooting of a woman and the wounding of a man at 1700 Gulf Freeway (South Interstate Highway 45) about 1:05 a.m. on December 10, 2023.  

The suspect is described as a light skinned black male in his mid 20s, with short dreadlock style hair that has blonde dye in places.  He was driving in a newer model black sedan.  A sketch of the male is attached to this news release.

He is wanted for his role in the killing of Louise Jean Wilson, 17. 

HPD Homicide Division Sergeant N. Miyako and Detective C. Bowling reported:  

HPD patrol officers responded to a shooting call at the above address and located a vehicle stopped on the shoulder of the freeway.  An unresponsive female (Ms. Wilson) and a male were found in the vehicle.  Both had been shot.  Houston Fire Department paramedics arrived, pronounced Wilson deceased and transported the man, 17, to an area hospital where he was treated and released for a non-life-threatening gunshot wound.

A preliminary investigation determined Wilson was driving and attempted to avoid striking a braking vehicle ahead and unintentionally swerved in front of a newer model, black or dark-colored, four-door sedan.  The sedan moved to the left of Wilson's vehicle and an unknown suspect(s) fired shots from the passenger side window.  Wilson and a male back seat passenger were struck.  A second male passenger inside the vehicle was not injured.  

At the time, the suspect was described only as a black male in his mid 20s.  

Anyone with information on the identity or whereabouts of the suspect in this case is urged to contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or speak anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS for a reward up to $20,000 for information leading to an arrest and charges.
