Pedro Sanchez was 24 when he was shot and killed outside Club Chapa at the Northwest Mall in Houston, Texas, on November 14, 2016. He and his brother Juan Sanchez, 29, became involved in an altercation that escalated when a man driving a pickup truck, later identified as Apolinar Aparicio-Mendez, 32, pulled up and began taunting several men. As Pedro and Juan walked toward the pickup, both were shot and were pronounced dead at the scene.

Aparicio-Mendez was arrested and charged with capital murder in connection with the deaths of the two brothers. The charge reflects Texas law for an alleged killing of more than one person in the same criminal transaction. The investigation included multiple witnesses and forensic work to support the case.

What did anyone who was at the Northwest Mall that night see or hear that could help clarify how the confrontation began and what happened at the pickup?
