Police identify suspect wanted for double-murder in Upper Kirby apartment

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Police have identified the suspect who is believed to have shot and killed two women in an Upper Kirby apartment on Friday.

The two women, aged 31 and 32, were found with multiple gunshot wounds around 6 p.m. in the 3200 block of Norfolk Street. One victim was identified as Nasim Arab, the other has yet to be named.

Officers found the women after being called to the apartment complex when neighbors reported gunfire, Houston police said. Residents said they could hear the shots from the first floor.

Police said they are searching for a white man, 20 to 30-years-old who is approximately 6-feet tall. He was last seen driving a black BMW sedan with New Jersey license plates YJT-75Y.
