Tremayne Givens was 36 when he was shot and killed on July 23, 2017, in Houston’s Fourth Ward neighborhood. The shooting happened in the late afternoon; emergency responders pronounced him dead at the scene. Police investigated the killing, but early reports offered few details about suspects or a motive.

Givens’ death came during a year when Houston faced significant gun violence needs despite an overall reduction in the murder rate, and his loss has been cited by family, friends, and community groups as part of the larger challenge of unsolved homicides. Tributes to his memory have appeared on online memorial platforms and local advocates continue to press for resources to help solve cases like his.

If anyone knew Tremayne, was in Fourth Ward that afternoon, or has information that could help, please share what you know with investigators.
