A gunman shot four people before taking his own life at a house warming party near Katy, the Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office said.
These things typically don't happen randomly. Domestic dispute or drug-related.

What better way to have a house warming party than to have everyone assume room temperature?

Wouldn’t that mean they’ve cooled off?

Sounds like they need to bar the door there.

This was a domestic dispute.
Katy is getting more crimes including violent crimes but it is still very far from being close to Houston type numbers.

Imagine having to move to Texas just to find a job and getting shot

This is an article from 2012, but I just want to point this out.

I just felt like pointing this out since you said "is getting almost as bad as Houston".
Is Houston "that bad" compared to the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s? And the thing about all of this is.. The population there today is larger than it was in the 4 decades I mentioned.
Just wanted to throw this out there.

It's good news for everyone but crime novel enthusiasts: Houston had fewer murder victims in 2011 than in any year since 1965, and the murder rate per capita is the lowest in the city's history.
With crime rates continuing a five-year decline, it's easy to forget that Houston was known for years as the murder capital of the country.
In the early days of Houston, the area saw Reconstruction-forged outlaws roaming through the city like Wild Bill Longley, a gunflighter with a particular penchant for murdering black men, and John Wesley Hardin, made famous by his run-ins with Wild Bill Hickok and by the lore that he once killed a man for snoring.

Even Rice University has a famous murder in its history. Although oilman William Marsh Rice intended for his $8 million fortune to go towards the founding of an institute in Houston, plans for Rice University were almost derailed when his New York lawyer and his valet conspired to poison him and forge a will that left Rice's fortune almost entirely to the lawyer, Albert Patrick.
The plan fell apart when a bank alerted Rice's Texas lawyer after Patrick tried to cash a check he'd made out to himself — he'd spelled Rice's name wrong.
But the most notorious Houston killings don't involve butlers or gunfighters. Whether mysterious, brutal or simply sad, these cases caught national attention:

Katy was balling out in the 2000's when I lived in Cypress.
Seems like one of the first Student/Teacher scandals came from Katy back then - before Al Gore invented the internet

Dallas is a war zone and now so is Katy.
Crime infested places.

I’d guess it’s similar to not finding a job in Louisiana and getting shot.
