Chrishun Chaney was 19 when he was shot and killed February 12, 2018, in the 10000 block of Beechnut in southwest Houston. Police say Chaney was shot multiple times while attempting to purchase drugs and was taken to a hospital where he died.

The shooter, identified as Stephen Chaney, turned himself in shortly after the incident and told police he acted in self-defense, saying Chrishun fired at him first, then dropped his gun and tried to flee. Stephen Chaney handed the recovered gun over to police and was arrested and charged with Chrishun Chaney’s murder. The Houston Police Department Homicide Division and Crime Stoppers asked anyone with information to come forward.

The case centers on conflicting accounts of a drug transaction that ended in fatal gunfire. Does anyone have information about that Beechnut-area shooting or knew Chrishun Chaney?
