Texas -A woman was killed and two men were injured in a shooting near a southwest Houston hookah lounge, police said.
Officers were dispatched shortly to the 11700 block of Wilcrest, where they found three people suffering from gunshot wounds, said Detective Jason Escobar of the Houston Police Department.
Paramedics pronounced a woman dead. Two men, ages 23 and 31, sustained non-fatal gunshot wounds. One was treated at the scene and the other was treated and released from a hospital.

Roughly 15 to 20 rounds were fired, Escobar said.
