Houston man killed during carjacking; suspect charged with murder

A 56-year-old man, Louis Erebia, was killed during a carjacking in Houston, Texas, on Saturday. The Harris County Sheriff's Office reported that Erebia tracked his stolen vehicle and confronted the alleged thief, London Hogan Sr., who then shot him. Erebia was taken to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead. Hogan is also accused of shooting another man who is expected to survive. The incident occurred when Erebia's son was refueling their vehicle, and Hogan allegedly stole the truck at gunpoint. Erebia and a friend used GPS to locate the stolen vehicle. After a collision involving the stolen truck, Erebia pursued the suspects, leading to Hogan firing multiple shots. Hogan has been charged with murder, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon. He has a prior criminal history, including charges related to assault and possession of controlled substances. During a court hearing, a judge noted that Hogan is currently on deferred adjudication for a previous assault charge.
