The suspect, Carl Taylor, now faces charges of murder and evidence tampering, according to a statement from the Houston Police Department. Officers were dispatched to the location around 8:30 a.m. on November 25, where they discovered the unresponsive victim in a wheelchair at a bus stop situated in the 600 block of East Tidwell Road. Emergency medical personnel arrived and declared the man deceased on the scene.

Investigators uncovered “evidence of the murder” within a nearby apartment. Court documents suggest that Taylor allegedly used a television and other items to carry out the brutal attack. Surveillance footage reportedly shows Taylor afterwards placing the victim in a wheelchair and transporting him to the bus stop. Authorities confirmed that Taylor resided in the apartment where the evidence was found.

As of now, the victim’s identity remains undisclosed, and detectives have yet to reveal any possible motives or clarify the nature of the relationship between the victim and the suspect.

The victim has not been publicly identified and investigators have not divulged a potential motive or said how the victim and suspect knew each other.

Prosecutors said police found bloody towels, a broken TV and drag marks which appeared to be from when Taylor dragged the victim across the apartment floor, according to a courtroom report from the Houston Chronicle. Cops believe the victim was homeless.

The apartment complex is reportedly for low-income seniors and disabled adults. Taylor”s attorney, Mark Hochglaube, said he had yet to see the surveillance video that showed his client wheeling the body out to the bus stop.

“I’m curious to see what it shows,” the attorney said, per the Chronicle. “I’m confident the evidence is going to show Mr. Taylor is innocent.”

Taylor was arrested and taken to the Harris County Jail on a $130,000 bond. Records show Taylor has an extensive criminal history dating back two decades on charges including theft, making terroristic threats and resisting arrest.

His next court date is scheduled for Feb. 9.
