One person killed and 14 others injured in Houston shooting.
Incident occurred at a family gathering after an uninvited guest was asked to leave.
Multiple victims are in critical condition and undergoing surgery.

At least one person was killed and 14 others were injured early Sunday during a shooting at a family party in Houston. The police reported receiving calls about shots fired around 12:50 a.m. on Cherryhill Avenue, with Assistant Chief Patricia Cantu confirming the chaotic scene upon arrival. "It's still very complicated," Cantu said, describing the events as "chaotic from the get-go," according to The New York Times, CBS News, Los Angeles Times, and India Times.

The incident unfolded when an uninvited guest was asked to leave the family gathering and allegedly opened fire, prompting others at the party to return fire. Some victims were treated at the scene, while others made their way to local hospitals, with several reported in critical condition undergoing surgery, as detailed by the Houston Fire Department and noted by Assistant Chief Cantu in multiple briefings, according to The New York Times, CBS News, and Los Angeles Times.

As the police investigation continues, numerous individuals have been detained for questioning, but no arrests have been confirmed as of now. The scene remains complex, with officers reviewing multiple locations for evidence related to the shooting, highlighted by the turmoil outside the home where the party was held, according to CBS News, Los Angeles Times, and India Times.
