Alvin Torres, a 16-year-old from Houston, was fatally shot on January 15, 2016, while walking near 6200 Beverly Hill. The shooting occurred about 4:30 p.m. when a white extended-cab pickup drove by and a Hispanic male fired multiple shots, striking Torres. He was taken to Memorial Hermann Southwest Hospital and later died of his injuries.

Surveillance footage captured Torres moments before the shooting and showed the suspect vehicle as it passed. Investigators released that footage and said the pickup’s license plate began with a D or an O, asking the public for help. As of the release of the footage, the suspect’s identity and the motive remained unknown and police were seeking tips through the Houston Police Department or Crime Stoppers.

If anyone saw a white extended-cab pickup in the Beverly Hill area that afternoon or has information that could identify the shooter, please contact the Houston Police Department or Crime Stoppers.
