A man walked up to another man and woman on Idaho Street in Houston Friday night and shot them both dead, according to police.

“They were gunned down, both of them,” said Houston police detective Michael Arrington. “We do know that the person walked up to them and shot them. The female took off running and he chased after her and shot her.”

Police said Saturday that the male victim was 37 years old and female 31 years old. They’re waiting to release their identifications until their families are notified.

The shooting happened at 7 p.m.

Police spokeswoman Jodi Silva said surveillance video shows the man walking up to the victims and shooting the male first. His body was discovered in the 4900 block of Radial Street, Silva said.

The woman then ran away, with the shooter chasing her. Her body was found in an empty lot on Idaho Street, according to Silva.

The shooter fled on foot, running west on Weston Street, police said.

Detectives say they don’t have much information about the perpetrator, but he is a man.

“We’re looking for any help from anybody in the neighborhood,” Arrington said.
