A pregnant woman was shot and killed after a fight broke out at a Texas park early Saturday, her family told ABC Houston station KTRK.

Four other people were struck by gunfire, including two suspected shooters, after dozens of shots were reportedly fired, police said.

The shooting occurred at Margaret Jenkins Park in southeast Houston around 1:14 a.m., police said. The Houston Police Department received multiple reports of shots fired at the location through its ShotSpotter technology, Assistant Chief E. Garcia said.

"A total of 36 shots came in from that technology," Garcia said at a press briefing.

Police believe a fight broke out between groups of people at the park, when the altercation led to some taking out firearms and shooting, Garcia said.

A Texas man pleaded guilty to smuggling a firearm that authorities linked to the deadly kidnapping of four U.S. citizens near the border in Mexico, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Texas.

Roberto Lugardo Moreno Jr. admitted to purchasing the pistol and then taking it to Mexico for the Gulf Cartel, the Wednesday statement from the U.S. Attorney's Office said.

"These weapons often contribute to fueling the violence committed by drug cartels, which drastically affects communities both in Mexico and in the United States," said Acting Special Agent in Charge Craig Larrabee of Homeland Security Investigations San Antonio. "This investigation and prosecution highlight the fine work federal border security agencies perform each day, often behind the scenes and often unknown to the public."

Tropical Storm Nicholas slowed to a crawl over the Houston area Tuesday after making landfall earlier as a hurricane, knocking out power to a half-million homes and businesses and dumping more than a foot (30.5 centimeters) of rain along the same area swamped by Hurricane Harvey in 2017.

Nicholas could potentially stall over storm-battered Louisiana and could bring life-threatening floods across the Deep South over the coming days, forecasters said.
