Earl Anthony-Blair Foster, 27, of Houston was fatally shot on March 31, 2020, at a gas station in the 2500 block of Almeda-Genoa Road. Foster, a former University of Houston football player, was not involved in an earlier argument inside the station that had escalated into a fistfight and left one man unconscious. As Foster attempted to flee the scene with another man, Xavier Jerome McConico, 23, produced a handgun and fired three times into the parking lot, striking Foster in the back of the head. Foster died at the scene.

McConico left but was identified on surveillance video and arrested on April 10, 2020; he admitted his role in the shooting during questioning. The shooting shocked the community because Foster was described as an innocent bystander with promise and family and friends mourned the sudden loss.

Did anyone in the area witness the argument or the shots that night, or did anyone know Foster in Houston who can share more about him?
