Police have identified the suspect as 57-year-old Anthony Martin Landry.

Officers with HPD said they responded to the shooting and found an unknown man unresponsive with multiple gunshot wounds.

Houston Fire Department paramedics responded to the scene and pronounced the man, later identified as Jeffrey Limmer, 46, dead.

The suspect fled the scene in an early 2000s blue Ford pickup truck.

Police at the scene said the suspect, now identified as Landry, was dissatisfied with his order, wanted a refund, and was arguing with the staff. Limmer reportedly tried to calm down the irate customer, but instead, the customer turned his attention toward him.

The argument led both men outside, and police said Limmer pushed the angry customer to the ground. After that, investigators say the suspect grabbed a gun from his car and shot Limmer twice before driving away from the scene.

Limmer was an attorney for Lewis Brisbois law firm.

Landry remains on the run.

The Limmer family released a statement after the suspect was identified:

“Our family is relieved to learn that the suspect has been identified, and we pray that he is apprehended as soon as possible so that he cannot hurt anyone else. Additionally, we are praying for the safety of law enforcement as they work to bring him to justice.

We are grateful to the community for your overwhelming love and support, and we ask that you respect our privacy as we mourn the loss of our dear Jeff.”


Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Anthony Martin Landry or in this case is urged to contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or speak anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
