Jerome Forney, 22, was shot to death on February 4, 2017, in Houston during an altercation with three men. The encounter began at a strip shopping center on the North Freeway service road near Greens Plaza, where Forney and another person were confronted by the three. After they left the plaza to avoid trouble, the three followed them into an apartment complex and the confrontation escalated. One of the men produced a pistol and shot Forney multiple times; the three then fled and Forney was pronounced dead at the scene.

The Houston Police Department opened an investigation and asked anyone with information to come forward. The motive for the shooting is described as unclear. If anyone witnessed the confrontation at the plaza or in the apartment complex, or has information about the three men involved, please share what is known with investigators.
