Curtis Anderson, 22, was tragically shot and killed on August 22, 2016, in Houston, Texas. The incident occurred late at night during a pool party held at a rental property in northeast Houston. According to witnesses, shots rang out just after 11 p.m. on Orville Street near Homestead Road. Several people attending the party heard the shooting, and they found Anderson lying on the ground. Partygoers attempted CPR until emergency responders arrived, but unfortunately, Curtis Anderson succumbed to his injuries shortly after being taken to the hospital.
The investigation into Anderson's death faced challenges as none of the attendees at the pool party claimed to know him. The police found no immediate suspects, and the case remained open as they continued to seek leads. The shooting was one of many incidents at this location, as neighbors voiced concerns over repeated parties at the property that often resulted in disturbances such as cars blocking the street and excessive noise.

The Houston Police Department has urged anyone with information about the shooting to contact them or provide tips anonymously through Crime Stoppers.
