Fifteen-year-old Ruben Agostadero was shot and killed on November 21, 2011, while walking home from soccer practice in southwest Houston. A white Ford F-150 pickup approached and someone inside opened fire; Ruben died at the scene and his friend Raul Pillado was hospitalized in serious condition. The shooting occurred near the Club Creek Drive apartment complex where Ruben lived with his family.

Ruben attended Hastings High School and had recently joined a soccer team. His family, originally from Guanajuato, Mexico, described him as loving and artistic, and said he wanted to help support the family when he was old enough. Police have investigated the case as a possible mistaken-identity shooting but the motive remains unclear and the investigation is ongoing.

If anyone who lived near Club Creek Drive or who knew Ruben and Raul has information that could help, please come forward.
