Henry Hooper, 39, was killed in what police say began as a road rage confrontation on April 13, 2025, in Houston. The shooting happened about 9:45 a.m. on North State Highway 6 near Park Row Boulevard. Officers found Hooper lying in the roadway just outside his vehicle with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Witnesses told investigators the dispute involved Hooper and two suspects and escalated from a verbal altercation into violence. Authorities say the suspects fled in a white Volkswagen hatchback westbound on Park Row Boulevard. Houston police released surveillance images of the vehicle and identified two Hispanic males, possibly in their 20s, as persons of interest; investigators later located and spoke with both men and obtained additional surveillance footage.

The shooting was referred to the Harris County District Attorney’s Office and will be presented to a grand jury. No suspects have been publicly identified and it is unclear whether charges will be filed. If anyone saw the shooting or the white Volkswagen that morning, please share what was observed.
