A Houston police officer is in serious condition and one suspect is dead after a violent crime spree came to an end in a shootout just a mile away from the Democratic presidential debate Thursday night.

The injured officer, 29, was still in surgery at Memorial Hermann hospital Friday morning after sustaining multiple gunshot wounds during a shootout on the 3900 block of Tristan at Scott - just a mile south of Texas Southern University where 10 Democrats were rallying for stricter gun laws.

Authorities identified the victim as a six-year veteran with the Houston police force, whose father also served for 42 years, the Houston Chronicle reported. He was also said to be a graduate from the University of Texas at Austin.

Police said that the officer was not in critical condition but that he was not “out of the woods yet.”

Trouble began at around 9:56 p.m. on the 5800 block of Scott when 4 black males carjacked a man at gunpoint, FOX26 reported. The 2003 Chevy Tahoe, which eventually ran out of gas, was found abandoned at 6300 Tierwester.

Less than 15 minutes later, a priest was reportedly approached by the suspects on the 3600-block of Meriburr Street where he was robbed at gunpoint, assaulted and then robbed of his cellphone.

Police located one of the suspects near a shopping center at around 10:24 and chased him on foot.

One suspect was taken into custody while another opened fire, eventually striking an officer. He was taken to an area hospital where his current condition was not immediately known.

A second suspect was killed on the scene, a third was taken into custody and a fourth was still on the loose.

Teen accused of shooting HPD officer during crime spree was out on bond

HOUSTON - A teen who was fatally shot after police say he shot a Houston police officer during a crime spree Thursday night was out on bond before he was killed.

The suspect has been identified as 17-year-old Brandon Bell.

It has recently been discovered that Bell was already out on bond for another carjacking case. Bell was charged in that case with aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon and criminal trespassing in a motor vehicle.

He and two others, a 15-year-old girl who is not being named and a 17-year-old, Cedric Paddio, are accused of carjacking a woman at gunpoint as she passed out campaign flyers in Sunnyside on Wednesday.

According to the Houston Police Union, the Harris County District Attorney's Office accepted a misdemeanor charge of criminal trespass in a motor vehicle on Bell, for which he was granted a "personal bond" at no cost. The union said Bell's court date was set for Sept. 10 but he jumped bail and was not penalized, nor was his bail revoked.

Bell went on another crime spree on Houston's south side Thursday that ended with a five-year veteran police officer being shot, Bell being killed by another officer, two people being taken into custody and a third suspect being sought, authorities said.

The names of the two other suspects arrested have not been released.

The priest was probably part of the Pro-Life anti-gay power structure so he probably had it coming. The cop was interfering with a young black man just trying to earn a living, so he should be arrested and charged with felony racism and violation of the young man's civil rights.
