On April 29, 2015, 24-year-old Cornell Williams was fatally shot in Houston, Texas. Officers responded to reports of gunfire around 9:00 PM in the 1500 block of West 43rd Street and found Williams unresponsive with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead shortly afterward. Witnesses saw a dark-colored vehicle speed away from the scene, and investigators collected nearby business surveillance footage to help identify suspects.

Police say the shooting may have been a targeted attack, though the motive remains unclear. No arrests have been announced and the Houston Police Department continues to investigate, offering a reward for information leading to the identification and arrest of those responsible. Family and community members describe Williams as a hardworking young man with career aspirations; his death has prompted calls for stronger efforts to curb gun violence in the neighborhood.

If anyone has information about the shooting, the vehicle seen leaving, or the people involved, can you share what you know with investigators?
