Police have arrested a man suspected of shooting and killing a teenager outside a local fast-food restaurant last week, according to the Houston Police Department.
Darius Sims, 27, has been charged with murder in connection to the shooting, according to police. HPD said the victim, 19-year-old Daniel Thompson, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police said Sims and Thompson got into an argument outside the Whataburger at 13270 Northwest Fwy., at some point during which Sims allegedly pulled out a gun and fatally shot Thompson. Sims then allegedly fired shots toward one of Thompson’s family members, who returned fire and hit Sims in the leg, according to HPD.
Sims then allegedly fled the scene and was found a short time later being treated at a local hospital, according to police.
