On December 9, 2016, 19-year-old Kelcii Flintroy, an African-American female from Channelview, Texas, was tragically found shot to death along with three others in a burning car on Market Street. The victims, identified as Christopher Chaney , Nicholette Briscoe , Willie Norman , and Kelcii Flintroy , were discovered with gunshot wounds to the head.
The Harris County Sheriff’s Office determined that the fire was an attempt to cover up the crime, and the case remains unsolved.
Kelcii Flintroy was a straight-A student and a homebody who had been working hard and saving money to buy her first car. She had recently moved to Houston to be with her mother and finish school. Investigators believe that the murders took place somewhere other than where the bodies were found, and the Harris County Sheriff’s Office continues to pursue all credible leads.
Despite the passage of nearly seven years, the case remains open, and the families of the victims are still seeking justice. The Harris County Sheriff’s Office has held news conferences and asked for the public’s help in generating new leads. The investigation is ongoing, and anyone with information is encouraged to contact Crime Stoppers of Houston.
The tragic loss of Kelcii Flintroy and her companions has left a lasting impact on their families and the community, who continue to remember them and hope for answers.
