“Pasadena Police were able to identify the suspect as Kenneth Leon Scott, Jr. (B/M 10/2/1976), shortly after the homicide investigation began. In the early morning hours of July 12th, Scott was apprehended by the Schulenburg Police Department in Fayette County. Scott was transported to the Fayette County Jail, where he is being held for transport to the Harris County Joint Processing Center.
The Harris County District Attorney has accepted the charges of Murder and Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon in regard to last night’s incident. The suspect did not disclose a motive at this time.
The Pasadena Police Department would like to extend our sincerest gratitude to the multiple agencies who assisted in the investigation; Harris County Precinct 8 Constable Phil Sandlin’s Deputies, Harris County Precinct 2 Constable Jerry Garcia’s Deputies, Fayette County Sheriff’s Office, the Colorado County Sheriff’s Office, Schulenburg Police Department and the Texas Department of Public Safety. The joint effort from these agencies led to the quick identification and apprehension of the suspect.”
