The murder-suicide involved a woman who was found stabbed to death at about 12:25 a.m. on Saturday. Her husband's body was discovered nearby with a self-inflicted gunshot wound, police said.
"She evidently had been there a long time," Lt. R. Willkens of the Houston Police Department said.
There was also a deadly shooting in northwest Harris County on Sunday at about 8:30 p.m.
According to the Harris County Sheriff's Office, a 15-year-old was found shot to death in the 2100 block of Place Rebecca Lane. A 16-year-old was also shot at that location but is expected to survive.

The seven non-fatal shootings that ABC13 covered included one in Denver Harbor on Saturday morning.
According to HPD, a waitress at a restaurant on Lyons Avenue at Boyles Street had her phone stolen by a customer. Police said she called her boyfriend, who showed up armed and wound up shooting two men during a fight for the device.
Both men are expected to survive, and investigators will discuss potential charges with the Harris County District Attorney's Office.
