On February 21, 2019, 23-year-old Marlon Rodriguez was ambushed in northeast Houston. When they did, the shooter opened fire, discharging 58 rounds.

Marlon and his brother, Maximo Aguilar, were both killed in the attack. Two other people, including Marlon’s 18-year-old girlfriend, were wounded. The shooter was identified as 18-year-old Marlon Brandon Valdez, a former high school acquaintance of the victims. Investigators concluded the attack was premeditated; Valdez was arrested and charged with capital murder, and the prosecution presented evidence of planning and intent at trial.

Families and the community described deep grief over the deaths and pointed to this case as an example of lethal youth gun violence in the city. Does anyone have information about the vacant-house location or remembers activity there before February 21, 2019?
