Juan Tzep Cotiy was 17 when he was shot and killed on January 11, 2017, in Houston, Texas. He and his father were walking near 10175 Harwin to go to work when Juan walked ahead and was approached by three young Hispanic males. Two ran across the street toward him while a third exited a small four-door vehicle, grabbed Juan and shot him once. The three then fled in a silver import sedan. Juan was taken to Ben Taub General Hospital in critical condition and later died of his wounds on January 9.

The suspects were described as young Hispanic males wearing hoodies and bandanas, and one was armed with a pistol. The Houston Police Department appealed for information after the attackers fled the scene. Few additional details about motive or victims appearance are provided in these accounts.

If anyone saw the incident near 10175 Harwin or has information about the silver import sedan or the men involved, please share what you know with investigators.
