More HPD Problems

I certainly don't want to make light of this, because it's not at all funny.

But I'm not quite sure that it reflects well on your police department when a detective suffers a fatal shooting in his cubicle in police headquarters, and nobody really seems to know what happened:

"One of the homicide investigators was alone in his cubicle," said HPD spokesperson Robert Hurst. "For reasons that are not yet known, the officer suffered a gunshot wound. The officer was transported here to Ben Taub Hospital for treatment of that gunshot wound. Homicide investigators and the internal affairs division were on the sixth floor in the homicide division at this time conducting their investigation."

The officer was alone in his cubicle at the time of the shooting. There was no search for a suspect. There was no suspect in custody.

Weird.
