Man shot in torso in Fort Worth hotel room homicide, law enforcement says

A man died Sunday morning from a gunshot wound in a homicide in a Fort Worth hotel room, police said.

The victim and suspect were in the room with other people “when a handgun in the suspect’s possession discharged striking the victim,” police wrote in a description distributed to the press.

The man, whose name and age were not released by the Tarrant County medical examiner’s office, was shot in the torso and died at the scene.

The suspect and others called 911 for help after the shooting.

Police have not made an arrest and have not released the name of the hotel, which is in the 4400 block of South Freeway.
