The incident began when police responded to a call at 2:42 p.m. on Thursday about the suspect. Police located and pursued his vehicle, but after it crashed, the suspect fired multiple times, wounding the three officers. 

After the crash, the suspect then carjacked a Mercedes-Benz at gunpoint, and drove the vehicle to a house in Houston where he barricaded himself Thursday evening.
