On the evening of June 1, 2017, 17-year-old Joseph Anthony Reyes, a recent graduate of North Shore Senior High School in Houston, Texas, was found with a gunshot wound to the head in the driveway of his home on the 13800 block of Northlake and Fernlake. His mother, upon hearing a gunshot and screams, discovered her son and attempted CPR before he was transported to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Joseph, a Hispanic male, had graduated just days earlier and was the eldest of four siblings, leaving behind a 1-year-old daughter.
In the initial stages of the investigation, authorities faced challenges due to conflicting accounts from individuals present at the scene. It was unclear whether Joseph had shot himself or if another party was responsible. Several individuals were taken to the police department for questioning to clarify the circumstances surrounding the incident.
Subsequent reports indicate that an 18-year-old named Angel "Fat Angel" Lopez was arrested and charged with the murder of 17-year-old Joshua Reyes in early May 2017. However, this appears to be a separate incident, as the victim's name and the date differ from those of Joseph Reyes.
As of the latest available information, there have been no public reports confirming arrests or identifying suspects in connection with the death of Joseph Anthony Reyes. The investigation remains open, and authorities continue to seek information to bring clarity and justice to this tragic event.
