Meanwhile, the Houston Police Department Chief discussed the look for identifying the gunman. “I just want to say something to our city. Houston. And every brother and sister in the neighborhoods,” Troy Finner said. “I’m calling you to action, to step up. There were 40 people at least at this event and people left possibly out of fear. I ask you one thing, and I want this to resonate with everybody. What if it was your brother, what if it was your son. You will want somebody to step up, so please step up.”
