Foronado Murphy, a 19-year-old man from Houston, Texas, was found dead on July 31, 2016. His body was discovered inside a car in northeast Houston near Bennington Street and Lockwood Drive. Investigators say Murphy was driving on Bennington when he got into an argument with 22-year-old Derrick Patterson, who pulled alongside the vehicle; the argument reportedly escalated and Murphy was shot, dying at the scene.

Witnesses identified Patterson as the shooter and he was arrested and charged with murder. The case attracted heavy local attention as investigators worked to reconstruct the events that led to the shooting and as the community and Murphy’s family coped with the loss.

If anyone saw activity near Bennington Street and Lockwood Drive on July 31, 2016, or has information about the argument that preceded the shooting, please come forward.
