Woman killed in North Richland Hills shooting; three in custody

North Richland Hills police are investigating a deadly shooting that occurred shortly after midnight in the 8600 block of Airport Freeway.

The deceased victim is a 21-year-old female from Dallas. Her information will be released by the medical examiner’s office. The second victim, who was transported to the hospital, is a 23-year-old man from Dallas. He is reportedly in stable condition with non-life-threatening injuries. 

Two NRH officers were working off duty at the time of the incident. One officer was able to return fire, and the second officer was able to apply a tourniquet prior to medic’s arrival for the male victim’s injuries.

Three 18-year-old men are in custody; however, their names and photographs will not be available until they have seen a judge.

Detectives have recovered what they believe to be the murder weapon. The initial evidence reveals that there was an altercation between several people before the shooting occurred.
