Peyton Cole, 23, of Spring, Texas, was found dead on September 8, 2022, in circumstances that investigators treated as foul play. Reports say he was involved in a violent altercation before his death; witnesses heard gunshots and saw a group of people fleeing the scene. Law enforcement identified several suspects and made multiple arrests connected to the incident.

Two of those arrested were named in charging documents: Jerdon Jones, 17, was charged with murder after authorities say evidence indicated he fired the fatal shots, and Lloyd Lewis, 18, was charged with tampering with evidence for allegedly attempting to remove shell casings and other items from the scene. Prosecutors cited witness testimony, surveillance footage, and forensic evidence; the defense has argued there were mitigating circumstances and that the events were not as clear-cut as the prosecution claims.

Peyton’s family and friends have attended hearings and sought a thorough investigation. Does anyone in Spring have information about the altercation or the night of September 8, 2022?
