Michael Truong was 52 and managing a convenience store when he was killed during a robbery and carjacking on October 22, 2016. Around 2 a.m., after locking the Texaco on East Hillcroft Avenue in southwest Houston, Truong and a colleague walked to separate vehicles in the parking lot. Truong was approached near his gray Honda minivan by two people wearing hoodies who attempted to steal the vehicle. A struggle followed and Truong was shot; he died at the scene. The suspects fled in his minivan and later abandoned it on West Fuqua Street. Shell casings were recorded near the pumps and investigators reviewed store surveillance footage. The Houston Police Department’s Homicide Division and Crime Stoppers are asking anyone with information to come forward.

If anyone knew Michael, saw the minivan around that time, or has information about the two people involved, please contact the Homicide Division or Crime Stoppers.
