On April 6, 2022, 24-year-old Juan Battice Ruffin was fatally shot inside his residence at Timber Ridge Apartments in northeast Houston, TX. The incident occurred around 2:15 a.m., while Ruffin's girlfriend and their two-year-old child were asleep in the next room. Ruffin's girlfriend was awakened by the sound of gunfire and discovered Ruffin with multiple gunshot wounds.
She immediately called the police.
According to initial investigations, a masked intruder, described as a black male wearing a ski mask, confronted Ruffin's girlfriend before fleeing the scene on foot. The girlfriend, who barricaded herself and the child in the bathroom, later cooperated with the police and was taken in for questioning. Investigators found narcotics and money at the scene, but it remains unclear if these items were related to the crime.
The Houston Police Department's Homicide Division is actively investigating the case, and anyone with information is urged to contact them or Crime Stoppers. The suspect remains at large, and the investigation is ongoing.
