From the Houston Chronicle:
Two Houston bike patrol officers subdued a gunman who was pointing and shooting a rifle in downtown’s Tranquillity Park near the Occupy Houston encampment late Monday afternoon, bringing moments of terror to an otherwise routine rush hour.
Despite hails of gunfire from both law enforcement and the rifle-waving man, no bystanders or officers were injured.
The 21-year-old man was struck at least twice and taken to Ben Taub General Hospital with injuries requiring surgery, but that are not believed to be life threatening, Houston Police Department spokesmanJohn Cannon said.
The gunman, whose name was not released, has a Houston address and was carrying a .40-caliber rifle. Police are investigating whether the man has a history of mental health issues.
Cannon said that every Occupy Houston participant interviewed said the man was not part of the movement and that they had never seen him before Monday night. Authorities are not aware of any other suspects or collaborators in the incident.
According to several witnesses, the man was wearing a black suit and white shirt when he entered Tranquillity Park from Bagby Street, shooting a rifle in the air about 5:15 p.m.
