Overview
- More than two dozen relatives and friends of 35-year-old mechanic Hector Vasquez gathered at HPD headquarters to demand accountability and clearer communication about the case.
- Police and reporting identify the suspected gunman as 42-year-old William Delawrence Lewis, a convicted felon who was out on bond for assault and died of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot at a third scene.
- Investigators say the spree began in Sugar Land, where Sherri Perrault was found shot in a vehicle and later died at Ben Taub Hospital, then continued to southwest Houston where a 51-year-old shop owner and Vasquez were killed.
- Sugar Land police linked the scenes with a BOLO for a gray SUV and said the suspected shooter and the Sugar Land victim were in a relationship, noting the attack there was not random road rage.
- The family and their attorney are pressing for details on how the weapon was obtained and why warnings or interventions did not occur, while HPD says the investigation remains active with no new disclosures.
