A manhunt is underway for a man accused of killing a teenager during a rent dispute.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office is searching for 21-year-old Angel Gomez Montanez who is accused of murdering Christopher Rodriguez Lara, 18.
The shooting happened around 10 p.m. Thursday at an apartment outside Houston, according to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez. When deputies arrived, they found Rodriguez Lara suffering from gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Zuleyka Ortiz said Montanez had been living in their family home for three months without paying rent, according to ABC 13. She said Montanez is the older brother to her children. The family took him in and he had been living on their couch.
"The only thing we told him is we needed the money for rent," Ortiz said, according to ABC 13. "I told him this can't be happening. We have bills to pay."
