Deputies were dispatched to the 12600 block of Wayne Spur Lane Friday just before 10:35 p.m. amid reports of multiple shots fired. The area is near the spot where Highway 290 splits with Highway 95. Upon their arrival, police found the body of Thomas Hardin, 48, of Elgin, Texas, on the porch of a house, sheriff's officials said in a press advisory.

The man had sustained multiple gunshot wounds, police said. A preliminary investigation revealed that Hardin was at the home of a neighbor with whom he had a previous dispute, according to sheriff's officials. Evidence at the scene suggests multiple shots were fired by more than one weapon, officials noted.
