They then attacked Broussard and his friends. Nine teenaged youths, ages 15–17, and one 22-year-old were high on drugs and alcohol when they left a high school party in the suburb of The Woodlands and headed for Houston's heavily gay Montrose area in an attempt to gain admittance to dance clubs located in the vicinity.Īfter being refused entry to several establishments, they pulled into a parking lot where they encountered Broussard and two friends, who were also intoxicated. Paul Broussard (1964–1991), a 27-year-old Houston-area banker and Texas A&M alumnus, died after a gay bashing incident outside a Houston nightclub in the early hours of July 4, 1991.
