HPD patrol officers responded to a shooting at an apartment complex at the above address and found an unresponsive male with gunshot wounds. Houston Fire Department paramedics responded to the scene and pronounced the male, later identified as Mr. Perez, deceased.
A preliminary investigation indicated Perez was shot by two unknown male suspects during a robbery. The suspects, described only as two Hispanic males wearing black hoodies and blue jeans, fled the scene in a gray or silver sedan of unknown make or model.

The Harris County District Attorney’s Office was contacted and today (February 19), Martinez Landaverde was subsequently charged for his role in Perez’s death.
