On November 5, 2024, a shooting at the Tierra Del Sol Apartments, 8000 Cook Road in Houston, left three males dead. Eddie Gomez, 17, and Jonathan Hernandez, 17, were found unresponsive with gunshot wounds in the complex’s laundry room and pronounced dead at the scene. A third victim, 23-year-old Juan Trejo Sandoval, was discovered just outside the laundry room with a gunshot wound and was taken to Ben Taub General Hospital, where he was later pronounced deceased.

Houston Police say a disturbance broke out between two groups of Hispanic males inside the laundry room and escalated into an exchange of gunfire. A surviving suspect fled initially, and investigators later identified 17-year-old Adiel Alexander Sandoval as the primary suspect. Sandoval was arrested without incident on November 6, 2024, charged with capital murder, denied bond at his initial appearance, and was held in the Harris County Jail with a next court date of November 11, 2024.

The community has been deeply affected, and the investigation remains active as authorities seek more information. If anyone has information about what led to the disturbance or was in the area that night, please share what is known.
