HOUSTON - Homicide investigators spent hours gathering evidence outside a Southwest Houston apartment complex, after a bullet hit and killed a woman who was sitting in her bedroom.



Investigators said that bullet was fired by one of two gunmen in the parking lot of Williamstown Apartments around 11:30 p.m. Tuesday. Those two shooters left behind a pile of shell casings on the ground outside the complex on Bissonnet Street.



According to officers, 61-year-old Maria Asuncion Soto-Garcia was in her second-floor apartment, lying in bed, when a stray bullet hit her.



Her husband told police that Soto-Garcia stood up and said she thought she had been shot before collapsing.



Homicide detectives began gathering evidence and interviewing several witnesses to try and get a better description of the gunmen.
