Houston police were dispatched to the 1900 block of Eubanks Street near Schneider Street at 4:23 a.m. in response to a crash that possibly involved a pedestrian being struck.

However, when officers arrived at the scene, they found the man shot to death and two vehicles crashed into a ditch at the end of the street.
