On June 20, 2019, 16-year-old Jason Nunez was shot and killed at the Serena Village Apartments in the 500 block of Greens Road in Houston. Responding officers found him lying on a patio in the complex.

Witnesses reported seeing 17-year-old Marco Jason Ruiz fleeing the scene and entering another apartment in the same complex; Ruiz was later apprehended without incident and charged with manslaughter, burglary with intent to commit aggravated assault, and tampering with evidence. Authorities have not released a motive for the shooting.

Jason’s death came during a year when Houston saw a modest rise in murders compared with prior years. Does anyone have information about Jason, the complex, or that night that could help clarify what happened?
