Carla Marizol Carias, 22, was shot and killed on December 13, 2016, in southeast Houston while visiting her boyfriend at the Tropicana Apartments. Around midnight she and her boyfriend’s father heard someone breaking into her car and went outside to investigate. As the burglars fled in a dark-colored sedan, one of them fired a shot that struck Carla in the heart. She was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead on arrival.

Police charged 17-year-old Broderick Delance Knight with capital murder, alleging he was one of the car burglars involved. Investigators say a second suspect was also involved and remained sought. Carla’s mother, Yolanda Avilez, publicly called for justice and urged anyone with information to come forward.

What did neighbors or anyone nearby see or hear that night that could help identify the second suspect or the vehicle involved?
