Juan Sanchez, 29, was fatally shot outside Club Chapa at the Northwest Mall in northwest Houston on November 14, 2016. The shooting occurred about 4:30 a.m. as he and another man, Pedro Sanchez, 24, were leaving the nightclub after an altercation escalated. Witnesses said a man in a pickup truck began taunting the group and that both Juan and Pedro were shot while walking toward the vehicle.

Apolinar Aparicio-Mendez, 32, was later charged with capital murder in the deaths of both men and reportedly admitted to shooting them. Under Texas law capital murder applies when more than one person is killed during the same criminal transaction.

The community and the families mourned the loss of Juan and Pedro while investigators gathered witness statements and evidence. Does anyone have information about that night or remember seeing activity near Club Chapa around 4:30 a.m. on November 14, 2016?
