During the fight, Acosta reportedly pulled out a gun and shot his brother multiple times. The man was later pronounced dead.
Family members told police the brothers had an ongoing history of domestic violence toward each other.
"It kind of escalated this morning over nonsense, I would call it. Over moving their vehicles, which led to one brother being shot," HPD Det. Alexander Vinogradov said.

The suspect fled after the shooting, but officers saw his vehicle a short time later after he called to turn himself in, HPD said.
He was taken into custody without further incident.
Investigators said both brothers lived at the residence.
Police did not release the identity of the 24-year-old who was killed.
