The following is from the Houston Police Department's press release.
November 28, 2022 - Charges have been filed against a third suspect wanted in the fatal shooting of a man at 6600 Maybank Drive about 2:30 a.m. on September 17.
The suspect, Jovanni Gonzalez, 19, is charged with capital murder in the 176th State District Court. A prior booking photo of Gonzalez, who is not in custody, is attached to this news release.
Two other suspect, Jorge Antonio Cruz, 20, and Daniel Medranos, 20, are charged with capital murder in the 209th State District Court and the 182nd State District Court respectively. Booking photos of both suspects are attached to this news release.
One unidentified male suspect remain at-large. He is described only as Hispanic males about 20 years of age. A surveillance photo of a wanted suspect vehicle is attached to this news release. It's believed the pickup truck has significant damage to the front driver's side door and the front quarter panel.
The victim is identified as Jordan Capuchino, 20.
HPD Homicide Division Sergeant R.. Watson and Detective J. Wallschlaeger reported:
HPD officers responded to shooting at the above address and found Mr. Capuchino suffering from a gunshot wound on the roadway, after his vehicle stuck a tree. Paramedics transported him to an area hospital where he was pronounced deceased.
Investigators learned the incident started with an armed robbery at a nightclub located at 415 West Little York. Capuchino and witnesses to the robbery pursued two robbery suspect vehicles to 6600 Maybank Drive, where two suspects in the two vehicles shot at Capuchino, striking him.
An initial investigation identified Medrano as one of the suspects and officers with the HPD Northwest Crime Suppression Team and the HPD Gang Division's Crime Reduction Unit arrested him on Sept. 17. He was subsequently charged.
Further investigation identified Cruz as a second suspect in this case and he was arrested on September 21 without incident.
Additional investigation identified Gonzalez as the third suspect involved in this incident and a warrant was issued for his arrest. Gonzalez's whereabouts are unknown at this time.
Anyone with information on the identity or whereabouts Jovanni Gonzalez or the identity of the unidentified suspect wanted in this case is urged to contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS (8477).

Thoughts? As of today, January 1, 2023, Jovanni is listed as having a warrant/not being in custody according to Harris County's court records database. There are no articles about the fourth suspect being identified so it appears that individual is still at large as well.
Jordan's parents want everyone involved or connected to their son's homicide to be brought to justice. I completely agree with them.
