Floyd Nauls, aged 74, was fatally shot during a home invasion at his residence in Houston, Texas, on October 27, 2008. The incident occurred during the afternoon when intruders entered his home, which was located at 6114 Great Oaks. According to reports, there was no sign of forced entry, leading investigators to speculate that the perpetrator might have had knowledge of Nauls or his routine. During the invasion, Nauls was shot, sustaining critical injuries, and he was taken to Ben Taub General Hospital, where he later succumbed to his injuries following surgery.
The investigation into Nauls' death was conducted by the Houston Police Department's Homicide Division. Despite efforts by law enforcement to gather leads and interview potential witnesses, no suspects were immediately identified. The case has been listed among unsolved homicides, with the Houston Police Department's Cold Case Squad later taking over the investigation in an effort to find new leads. Authorities have continued to appeal to the public for information that might help bring those responsible to justice.
