On February 29, 2024, 24-year-old Logan Evan Perkins was found fatally shot in his apartment in Sansom Park, Texas. Officers responded to a call around 4:30 p.m. reporting an unresponsive man bleeding inside an apartment in the 3100 block of La Junta Street. Upon arrival, they discovered Perkins had suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene.
In the week leading up to his death, Perkins experienced a concerning incident where someone vandalized his doorbell camera by kicking it down. He reinstalled the camera but was unable to identify the perpetrator. It remains unclear whether this event was connected to his subsequent murder.
The investigation into Perkins' death led to the arrest of a 16-year-old suspect on March 22, 2024. Sansom Park police, with assistance from the Fort Worth Police Department, apprehended the teenager without incident. Due to the suspect's age, authorities have withheld their identity and have not disclosed the evidence leading to the arrest.
Perkins was born on August 15, 1999, in Houston, Texas, and is remembered by his family as a sweet, kind, and hard-working individual. He is survived by his parents, Robert and Christy Perkins, his sister, Lauren Hamilton, and other family members. Funeral services were held in Tomball, Texas, with visitation on March 8 and a funeral service on March 9, followed by a committal service at Klein Memorial Park in Pinehurst, Texas.
The tragic loss of Logan Perkins has deeply affected his family and the Sansom Park community. As the legal process unfolds, further details may emerge regarding the circumstances of his death and the motivations behind this senseless act of violence.
