Police initially believed the incident was a burglary, but said at a press conference late Friday -- once it was learned the two were brothers -- that it was instead "a domestic issue."
"This isn't a burglary, this is some kind of a domestic issue that occurred," said Lt. Scott Spencer, from the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office. "So all of our detectives are investigating all avenues at this time."
Lee's body was found in a bathroom at the house where the suspect lived. He was shot "multiple times," police said.
The suspect was treated for unnamed "medical conditions," according to police, and is cooperating with authorities.

The Harris County Sheriff's Office, Texas Rangers and Montgomery County district attorney are currently conducting an investigation into the shooting.
