Chase Daniel Swain was a 16-year-old male from Houston who died on April 21, 2021, after an accidental shooting. He and three other teenagers were inside an abandoned, fire- and flood-damaged home in the 12800 block of Flagstaff Lane, near Beaumont Highway and South Lake Houston Parkway, when a handgun discharged and struck Chase in the chest. He was taken to a hospital with critical injuries and later pronounced dead.

Investigators determined the handgun had been obtained the previous night during a car burglary by 17-year-old Sinardo Cooke. Cooke admitted to handling the gun when it went off and was charged with manslaughter; he was arrested and booked. The other three teenagers present were released to their families. Deputies believe the group had been skipping school when they gathered at the abandoned house.

Who in the area knew Chase or saw teenagers at that abandoned home around April 21, 2021?
