Tasia Gardner, 36, was fatally shot on January 5, 2022, in northeast Houston. The drive-by occurred in the 10900 block of Cheeves Drive while Gardner sat in a parked car with 36-year-old Leroy Butts. A dark-colored sedan pulled up and occupants opened fire; both Gardner and Butts were struck multiple times. Gardner was pronounced dead at the scene; Butts was taken to hospital in critical condition.

Witnesses reported a Hispanic female initially in the driver’s seat of the sedan, with a Black male later taking over driving as the vehicle fled. The motive remains unknown and the investigation is ongoing. No arrests or suspects have been identified and investigators have asked anyone with information to contact the Houston Police Homicide Division or Crime Stoppers.

Did anyone in the northeast Houston area see the dark-colored sedan or know more about who was in it on January 5, 2022?
