Andres Chan, a 61-year-old Guatemalan man, was tragically killed on January 11, 2020, in Southwest Houston, Texas. He was walking to a grocery store with his son, Juan, when two suspects approached them. The suspects first robbed Juan and then turned their attention to Andres. When Andres resisted and begged them not to take his wallet, he was shot at point-blank range in the head. He died in front of his son.
The suspects were described as Hispanic males in their late teens or early 20s, with one wearing a red hoodie and the other a dark-colored hoodie. The shooter's accomplice was driving a light-colored Corolla.
Houston police launched an investigation into the murder, and an appeal was made for anyone with information to come forward. A Crime Stoppers reward was also offered for information leading to the arrest of the suspects. Despite these efforts, no arrests have been made in connection with Andres Chan's death as of now.
The case remains open, and the Houston Police Department continues to seek justice for Andres Chan and his family. The suspects, if caught, could be charged with capital murder. Andres Chan's son, Juan, has expressed his grief and desire for justice, stating that his father came to the United States for a better life and was known for his humility and willingness to help others.
The investigation into Andres Chan's murder is ongoing, and the Houston Police Department urges anyone with information to come forward to help bring the perpetrators to justice.
