Michael Boyd, a 20-year-old male from Houston, Texas, tragically lost his life on June 24, 2014. Boyd was fatally shot in his driveway after returning home from work. He was struck by multiple shots fired from a .223 caliber assault rifle, which penetrated the back of his vehicle. Despite being rushed to Memorial Hermann Northwest Hospital, Boyd succumbed to his injuries.
The investigation into Boyd's death revealed that Daniel Cruz, a 26-year-old man, was named as a person of interest.
Cruz had been deported to Honduras four years prior but had returned to the United States. A week before Boyd's murder, Cruz was involved in an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, targeting the mother of his child, who was also dating Boyd and raising his child. This connection led authorities to suspect Cruz in Boyd's murder.
Houston police have been actively seeking Cruz in connection with Boyd's death. The case remains an open investigation, with law enforcement urging anyone with information to come forward. The emotional plea from Boyd's family continues, as they seek justice for their loved one and closure for the tragic loss.
