On September 2, 2019, 27-year-old Jesus Cejudo of Houston was shot and killed at 4118 Beran Drive in southwest Houston. The shooting followed an altercation connected to a domestic dispute: Cejudo was upset about his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend and had gone to pick up his child. Abel Anuario Cruz, 77, who had been arguing with Cejudo’s ex-girlfriend, pulled out a shotgun and fired at Cejudo’s minivan, striking Cejudo twice. Cruz’s grandson was in the back of the minivan at the time but was not injured.

Cruz was charged with murder and made a first court appearance on September 3, 2019; investigators later charged him with felony murder. The case involved local law enforcement, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the Mexican consulate. The community reacted strongly to the role of family tensions and firearms in the fatal confrontation.
