Carlton Earl Bauggue, 53, was killed in Houston on July 26, 2008. At about 1:45 a.m., Bauggue and his son were leaving a southwest Houston used-car dealership when two men approached and demanded their wallets. During the attempted robbery one of the suspects shot Bauggue in the neck; he was pronounced dead at the scene shortly afterward.

The Houston Police Department’s Homicide Division took charge of the investigation. The suspects fled and were not immediately apprehended; investigators had sought tips from the public and Crime Stoppers offered rewards for information that could help identify or capture those responsible.

Whoever has information about that night at the dealership is asked to contact investigators or Crime Stoppers.
