GUNMAN WHO KILLED HOUSTON DEPUTY COMMITTED SUICIDE

  

Police say a man who fatally shot a Houston-area deputy last week committed suicide the following day.

Authorities say 64-year-old William Kenney was the man who shot Harris County Precinct 3 Assistant Chief Deputy Clinton Greenwood on April 3rd.

Greenwood was shot after arriving for work at a Houston-area courthouse.

The shooting prompted a huge manhunt for the killer.

Police say that investigators identified Kenney late Sunday as the gunman. They found his body early today (Monday) at a home in downtown Houston.

Baytown Police Lt. Steve Dorris said the gun used in the shooting of Greenwood was the same one used by Kenney to kill himself.

Dorris says investigators are still working to determine why Greenwood was targeted.
