On December 26, 2014, 27-year-old Manlio Fajardo of Houston was shot and killed at a car wash in what police described as a targeted attack. Several people in two separate vehicles confronted Fajardo and the confrontation quickly escalated into gunfire. Investigators later recovered a dropped cell phone and an abandoned vehicle at locations tied to the incident.

Those pieces of evidence, together with surveillance footage, were used to trace and link suspects to the scene and led to arrests. The case was one of multiple violent incidents affecting Houston that year, and it illustrates how technological traces and video can connect suspects to a shooting.

If anyone knew Manlio, saw activity around the car wash that day, or has information about the confrontation, please share what you know with authorities.
