Ziauddien Sharique Khan, a 44-year-old man of South Asian descent, was shot multiple times during an armed robbery at the FM 529 Smoke Shop in Houston on August 23, 2014. He was taken to Ben Taub Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The cash drawer was taken by the suspect, who fled the scene.

Investigators identified 22-year-old Sergio Ramon Gil from surveillance footage linked to another smoke shop robbery a few days earlier. Gil was arrested, charged with capital murder, and reportedly confessed to Khan’s shooting; authorities say he had committed several smoke shop robberies. A second man was later arrested and charged in connection with the murder, and the Harris County Sheriff’s Office continued investigating possible additional involvement.

A makeshift memorial was set up outside the shop and family described Khan as a family man who had taken the day off to spend with loved ones. Does anyone have information about Khan, the FM 529 Smoke Shop, or the events around August 23, 2014?
