On June 6, 2026, 56-year-old Houston father and grandfather Louis Erebia was shot and killed after pursuing suspects who had carjacked his son’s Chevrolet Silverado at gunpoint while the son was putting gas in east Harris County. Erebia and a family friend used a GPS tracker to locate the stolen truck; the pursuit ended near I-610 North and Airline Drive when a crash disabled the pickup. The suspect identified as London Hogan Sr. and a female companion ran from the vehicle toward a nearby Chevron. Erebia chased them, and Hogan allegedly produced a gun and fired multiple shots, striking Erebia and the family friend. Both victims were taken to hospital; Erebia later died and the friend survived with wounds.

Law enforcement identified and arrested London Hogan Sr. and charged him with murder, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon. Court paperwork noted Hogan was on deferred adjudication for a 2023 assault case; he requested a court-appointed attorney and the matter was assigned to the 339th District Court where bond decisions will be made. Erebia’s family described him as a selfless community leader and the backbone of his family.

If anyone has information about the shooting, the suspects, or the events near I-610 North and Airline Drive that afternoon, please share what is known.
