Unsolved Crime - 6/17/2015

6/17/2015


"On June 17, 2015, Harris County Deputies responded to a call of a shooting, located in the 14900 block of Sellers Rd, in Harris County, in reference to a male found shot to death in his car in the middle of the roadway. Deputies arrived and found the male victim shot multiple times. The shooting occurred between 4:30am and 5:00am. Witnesses heard gunshots and saw a suspect pick up truck flee the shooting scene."

A day I can never forget. I had drove Sellers Road at about 4:40 am!!! as I was coming back from Humble, Texas and then in one of the dead end streets heading south before getting to the laundromat there was a suspicious white or gray car just parked on the street facing Sellers Road. I am paranoid so I started going really fast so that the car would not follow me and see me turn right on the street I live at. I did not even put a signal light so the car would not know I was turning right. Then around 8:00 am as I was on my way to work the road was closed and I googled what was going on and then there it was someone had been shot. Later in the day I learned it was my brothers friends grandfather. I saw the picture of a little old red car and asked my brother was the car the one that was on the news online and he was like yes that is his car. Then I realized I had previously driven behind this old man. I drove behind him on a Saturday when I was on my way to work. I was running late it was 4:30 am and I had to be there at 4:00 am so I was getting frustrated and passed this little car and saw an old man drinking coffee or something out of a cup. I was like "ughh no wonder he is driving slow because is old..." Since that day I am always scared when I am driving down Sellers in the dark mornings or at night. I always think about what if the person or people that killed this man were on the hunt to kill anyone that was out at that time?? It could have been me as I passed the location he was shot at a few minutes before the incident supposedly happened. Then I think what if the person or people that killed him killed him because they became aggravated because he was driving very slow in front of them as he had done to me on a Saturday when I was on my way to work.

I had to look to see if the case had been solved, but I see it has not so that means the killer is still on the loose. Also I always think about that white or gray car that I saw, but now I can rest as on the report it says witness saw a pickup truck fleeing the scene.
