A Cinco Ranch housewarming party in Texas has reportedly ended in tragedy, as a man named John Wright pulled out a gun and shot his sister, Julianna Wright Carr, 48, and three other guests ending his shooting spree by taking his own life.
A lot about the case is still unknown, and details have been coming out slowly.
Residents have been in shock over the incident, with many wondering how things could have gotten that bad, and if the situation could have been prevented by paying more attention to the shooter before.
The incident took place late in the evening, close to midnight. Authorities arrived at the scene to find the sister of the shooter dead, while the killer himself was still alive but in a critical condition.
Despite attempts to save his life at the hospital, he passed away shortly after.
Others, who were shot during the attack, are reportedly not in such a bad condition and are likely to make a full recovery, according to official reports.
The shooter did not manage to get everyone at the party, as several others were able to escape with no harm at all.
A lot is still unknown about the case, and authorities have been looking into it in detail, investigating several possible angles, according to reports.
There has been a lot of speculation over the incident as well, as many people have been trying to figure out why the man would want to commit such an atrocious act.
At this point, though, observers are unlikely to find out the whole truth.
Carr was a talent execution manager at Engel & Völkers in Houston. It is a real estate company that focuses on celebrities and high-end clientele.
She was originally from Corpus Christi and moved to Katy and her new home on July 1. According to reports, she leaves behind one adult son and a teenage daughter.
An entire community is shocked and traumatized by what happened and still cannot understand what led to the tragedy.
