Cory Starnes, 35, was shot and killed the night of August 25, 2025, in the Westwood Beach community south of Chandler, Texas, near Lake Palestine. Emergency responders found Starnes lying in the roadway; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Local funeral and memorial notices confirmed his identity and age.

Investigators said the violence followed an argument between Starnes and an 18-year-old acquaintance in the subdivision. An arrest affidavit referenced by local reporting says a witness saw the teenager go to his vehicle, retrieve a gun, and the confrontation continued in the road before shots were fired. The shooter fled moments later in a silver Chevrolet Impala, and deputies secured the scene on a residential road. The Henderson County Sheriff’s Office identified the suspect as Chuck Brady Norris, 18, and announced a murder charge; booking records show he was taken into custody August 26, 2025.

Reports indicate the two knew each other and authorities did not announce additional suspects. Did anyone in the Westwood Beach area see the silver Chevrolet Impala that night or have information about what led to the argument?
