HOUSTON – Houston police are investigating after a man was found shot to death near Texas Southern University Tuesday.

The suspect remained at the scene and has been detained. Crowson said once the investigation is complete, police would contact the district attorney’s office to see if there will be any charges or if the case might be referred to a grand jury.
