Anthony Alexander Perla, an 18-year-old from the Cypress area, died on April 15, 2026, after a shooting at the Regency Park Apartment Homes in northwest Harris County, Texas. Deputies were called to the 11300 block of Regency Green Drive that Wednesday evening after a report someone had been shot during a confrontation. Responding deputies found Anthony with an apparent gunshot wound; he was pronounced dead at the complex after deputies detained the alleged shooter and secured a weapon.

Investigators identified 23-year-old Christopher Jordan as the person accused in the shooting. Reports say Jordan and Anthony had been inside another man’s apartment before the altercation moved into the parking lot. A third male was detained while homicide investigators worked the scene; reporting did not indicate charges for that person. Anthony’s obituary notes he was born in Houston on April 29, 2007, had ties to family and friends, graduated from Banff School, and attended Jean Percy School of Barbering.

No trial outcome or conviction information was available; the investigation was described as ongoing. If anyone knew Anthony or was in the Regency Park area on April 15, can you share what you saw or heard that evening?
