Dasmin Hikiem Pierre charged with murder at 8700 Gustine Lane
"The following article includes allegations as released by the government and should not be taken as truthful evidence or as any indication of guilt. As these allegations remain unanswered by the accused and unadjudicated by a court, they remain unproved and are just as likely false."
Charges have been filed against a suspect in the fatal shooting of a man at 8700 Gustine Lane about 10:45 p.m. on Thursday (March 15).
The suspect, Dasmin Hikiem Pierre (b/m, 9/2/87), has been charged with murder in the 183rd State District Court and has not been arrested at this time. He is described as a black male, 19 years old, 5 feet 8 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall, with a medium build. He has gold teeth and is known by the street name of “Rock.”
HPD Homicide Division Sergeant J. Wyers and Officers K. Lovelace and F. Mares reported:
HPD officers found the victim, identified as John Henry Matthews, 23, of 8700 Gustine Lane, shot in the backseat of a Mercury Sable parked in the apartment complex parking lot. Witnesses reported Matthews and Pierre knew each other and had previously used drugs and conducted drug transactions together. Matthews was taken to Ben Taub General Hospital where he later died from multiple gunshot wounds to the head.
