On November 11, 2023, at about 3:35 a.m., Houston police responded to a shooting at a residence on 14814 Hiram Clarke Road. Officers found 17-year-old Jonathan Adame Reyes unresponsive in the garage with multiple gunshot wounds; paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene. A 16-year-old male was also shot and found in the roadway, taken to a local hospital in critical condition and later treated and released.

After an investigation, authorities identified 19-year-old Dennis Armenta Jr. as the primary suspect. On March 19, 2024, officers with the Houston Police Department’s Gang Division Crime Reduction Unit arrested Armenta without incident. He admitted involvement in the shooting during questioning and was charged with manslaughter and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in the 487th State District Court.

The death of Jonathan Adame Reyes is part of a wider pattern of firearm deaths among young people in Harris County cited by local data. Does anyone have information about the night of November 11 or knew the victims that could help investigators?
