Benigno Campos Salamanca, a 44-year-old Hispanic father of six, was shot and killed on November 29, 2021, in northwest Harris County, Houston. He was walking to work early that morning outside his apartment when a masked man approached in the parking lot. After a brief altercation the suspect fired, striking Campos Salamanca in the stomach; he died at the scene.

Family members said Campos Salamanca had received threats a few months before the killing, and his ex-wife suggested those threats may have led to him being targeted. Witnesses reported two men leaving the area in a white four-door sedan, and investigators have been speaking to witnesses and reviewing surveillance footage while searching for the vehicle and the men.

No arrests or publicly identified suspects have been announced and the case remains open. If anyone has information about the shooting, the Harris County Sheriff’s Office is being asked to be contacted.
