Good morning, Houston. I’m Morgan Riley. Word on the streets of Houston is that our city is never quiet, and today proves it with a packed lineup of local stories, community voices, and a look at what’s ahead.

Topping the news this week, Houston police responded to a shooting at Burnett Bayland Park in the Gulfton area. On Sunday afternoon, a call came in around 4:30 p.m. after shots were fired near Chimney Rock Road. One individual was taken to the hospital, and several people have been detained for questioning, but authorities have yet to release further details about the individuals involved or the current condition of the person hospitalized. Incidents like this remind us how important community safety remains and why so many Houstonians are calling for continued investment in neighborhood programs, especially as summer brings more families outdoors, hoping for safe recreation.

In other headlines, Houston families gathered this past weekend for a heartfelt reunion to honor the memories of loved ones lost to unsolved crimes. According to Click2Houston, the gathering became a powerful call for answers and a reminder of the resilience that pulses through our communities in the face of grief. These stories keep the conversation going, highlighting how Houstonians support each other, even as justice remains elusive for some.

Now, let’s shift to something uplifting. Beyoncé has returned home, dazzling fans and stirring up city pride as she kicked off her Cowboy Carter tour right here in Houston. Fans who packed Daikin Park Saturday night described it as more than just a concert but a celebration of Houston’s unique spirit. The Queen Bey’s performances always seem to bridge generations, blending classic Houston soul with the energy of today’s music scene.

Looking at the weather, expect continued humidity and scattered storms as we move further into hurricane season. Local meteorologists are urging residents to keep an eye on towering storm-damaged trees, especially after recent downpours, which can leave homes vulnerable. If you notice any damaged trees near your property, city officials recommend reporting them to help prevent future hazards.

For upcoming events, the Houston Housing Authority is reminding residents on their waitlist to check in and update personal details to avoid being dropped. Meanwhile, community groups are holding resource fairs across the city for those needing assistance with immigration and housing support. Houston’s neighborhood associations are also kicking off a series of summer block parties and clean-up drives—perfect opportunities to connect and build stronger bonds.

From public safety to pop culture, today’s news reminds us that Houston is a city on the move—always challenging, always innovating, yet grounded by a sense of community that never fades.
