Seventeen-year-old Xavier Portillo was shot and killed on June 29, 2021, while sitting in the backseat of a friend’s SUV at the intersection of Beechnut and Boone Road in southwest Houston. Xavier, a rising senior at Elsik High School, had been leaving a taco truck with two friends when the shooting occurred. Authorities believe the attack stemmed from road rage.

Houston police released images of a white Honda Accord with chrome door handles and five-spoke wheel rims, possibly with a dark-colored front bumper, which they think may have been involved. No arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved. Xavier’s mother, Perla, has been publicly urging anyone with information to come forward and the family continues to seek closure.

If anyone was near Beechnut and Boone Road that evening or has information about the white Accord, please share what you know.
