Man charged with murder after deadly convenience store shooting in Harris County

A 34-year-old man was charged with murder after deputies discovered a 49-year-old man fatally shot in the parking lot of a convenience store on the 11900 block of Bammel North Houston Road, just south of Champion Forest Drive, during an in-progress call around 10 a.m. Feb. 20. Harris County Sheriff’s Office deputies began life-saving measures at the scene before emergency medical services arrived; the victim was pronounced dead at the location.

Reports identify the victim as 49 and give name variants in records as Glenn Grey and Glenn Gray; one arrest update listed the name as Glenn Godfrey Grey. Deputies said the man was found unresponsive in the store parking lot with multiple gunshot wounds. Investigators processed the scene while deputies handled follow-up leads.

While homicide investigators were working the parking lot scene, deputies received information that an unidentified man had arrived at Houston NW Hospital with multiple gunshot wounds. Responding deputies located the injured man at Houston NW Hospital and identified him as 34-year-old Albert Williams, who was receiving treatment at the facility when deputies made contact.

Homicide detectives interviewed Williams at the hospital. According to investigators, he cooperated and "admitted to shooting Grey following a verbal confrontation." The report does not provide additional detail about the confrontation, any bystanders, or surveillance footage from the convenience store.

Detectives consulted with the Harris County District Attorney’s Office, which accepted a murder charge against Williams. Members of the Sheriff’s Office Violent Criminal Apprehension Team later arrested Williams without incident; he was booked into the Harris County Jail. Court records show Williams is due for a preliminary appearance on Monday. No booking number, bond information, or formal charging instrument has been released publicly so far.

Klein Independent School District officials placed nearby campuses into secure mode during the investigation. Klein Forest High School, Vistas, Wunderlich Intermediate and Klenk Elementary had their exterior doors locked and were not allowing entry or exit while deputies worked the scene, a district official described as "secure mode, meaning all exterior doors were secured, and no one was allowed to enter or exit the buildings."

Investigators have not released details on the weapon used, the number of shots fired at the convenience store, or the medical status of Williams beyond that he arrived at Houston NW Hospital with multiple gunshot wounds. Authorities continue to process the scene on Bammel North Houston Road and review hospital and booking records as the case proceeds toward the scheduled preliminary hearing.
