– A Houston man was sentenced to 22 years in prison after pleading guilty earlier this year to fatally shooting a man in Spring, Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg announced.
Investigators said Moore, a New Jersey father of three who was single at the time of his death, was staying at an Airbnb in Spring with three friends who came to Houston on vacation. During the weekend of the shooting, they went to multiple clubs and restaurants and met several women with whom they exchanged phone numbers, Ogg said.
Lane allegedly drove to the street the house was on, got out of his car with a flashlight and handgun, and began assaulting Moore and the woman. Investigators said he pistol-whipped both of them and shot Moore several times. He and the woman then left together. Deputies with the Harris County Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene.
By using the cellphone data and witness accounts, sheriff’s detectives said they were able to identify Lane as the killer. He was found and arrested days later.
