HARRIS COUNTY, Texas – Authorities are searching for a man described as suspicious who was wearing a Michael Myers mask near the scene of a deadly shooting in Texas, investigators told our Houston sister station ABC13 on Friday.

The shooting happened on Halloween night around 11:15 p.m. on Hawks Nest Drive near March Creek Drive in northwest Harris County.

A man was outside in a garage when someone shot him multiple times while his two young children were inside the house, officials said. The children were not harmed. The third child, a toddler, was with a relative and was not home at the time of the shooting.

According to authorities, neighbors reported seeing a suspicious man wearing a Michael Myers mask.

Detectives are investigating whether the man is the shooter but have not released any other details about him. The investigation into the circumstances of the shooting and its motive continues.

A sergeant with the Harris County Sheriff’s Office told ABC13’s Courtney Fisher that the man’s ex-wife, who is also the children’s mother, was murdered in her Harris County apartment back in August.

They had three children, and now those children have lost both parents.

ABC13 has also learned that a man was a person of interest in the murder of his ex-wife.
