HPD Homicide Division Detectives M. Barrow and J. Caten reported:

HPD patrol officers responded to a shooting at an apartment at the above address and found that Mr. Piedra had been shot multiple times.  Houston Fire Department paramedics transported him to the hospital.

Witnesses stated they saw two black males, one wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and carrying a gun, fleeing the apartment complex.  They were accompanied by two black females, one wearing a striped dress and the other appeared to be the driver of a white Toyota sedan with paper license plates.

Further investigation led to the identification of Sherikah and her sister, Ariel McGee, as suspects in this case and they were subsequently arrested and charged.
