Jean Makidissi, a 26-year-old man of Middle Eastern descent, was fatally shot the evening of March 24, 2015, outside the Briarwood Village Apartments on Avenida La Quinta Street in Houston. He was one of two brothers killed in the same attack at the apartment complex.

Houston police arrested 27-year-old Roderick Richards and charged him with capital murder in connection with the shootings. Authorities said Richards was accused of shooting Jean and his brother, Gilbert Makidissi, during an altercation; officials described the incident as a targeted attack, though an immediate motive was not clear.

The shootings prompted a major investigation and community concern about gun violence in the area. If anyone has information about what happened that night or knew Jean or his brother, please share what you know with investigators.
