Anthony Johnson was 33 when he was shot and killed in Houston on March 13, 2012. He was found in a residential area in the late evening with multiple gunshot wounds after neighbors heard shots and discovered him unresponsive. The Houston Police Department’s Homicide Division took over the investigation.

Police reported the shooting was linked to an attempted robbery and said early leads included possible gang involvement or a dispute over narcotics, but those theories were not confirmed publicly. Investigators faced difficulty because few witnesses were willing to come forward, and the neighborhood had seen similar violence in recent years.

The department continued to appeal for information in the months after the killing, but no charges were announced and the case remained unsolved. If anyone saw or heard something that night or has information about Anthony’s death, please come forward to the Houston Police Department.
