Gary Jerome Hunter, 38, was shot and killed outside a convenience store on North Main Street in Houston on September 4, 2022, around 11:20 p.m. Surveillance footage shows Hunter involved in an altercation with another man shortly before the shooting. He was taken to a nearby hospital and pronounced dead on arrival.

Houston Police Department investigators worked the scene, gathered evidence and witness statements, and identified a suspect. On September 6, 2022, 62-year-old James B. Thomas was arrested and charged with murder in the 177th State District Court in connection with Hunter’s death.

The case prompted extensive investigative work and renewed discussion about gun violence and public safety in the community. Does anyone have information about Hunter’s last known movements or the altercation outside the store?
