Juan Castillo was 20 when he was shot and killed on July 17, 2012, in southwest Houston. He was found with multiple gunshot wounds outside an apartment complex on Westward Street in what police described as a targeted attack. Authorities said the slaying may have been linked to gang activity in the area, but no definitive suspects had been identified.

The Houston Police Department investigated the case but leads remained scarce and the homicide went unsolved. Castillo’s family and friends were left seeking answers and justice, and investigators urged community members to step forward with any information that might help. Does anyone who lived in that neighborhood then remember seeing or hearing anything the night of July 17, 2012?
