AUSTIN (KXAN) — Austin police are offering a $1,000 reward for information after a drive-by shooting at a north Austin hookah lounge left a teen dead and two others injured in September of 2018.

The shooting took place in the early hours of Sept. 23 at the Paris Hookah Lounge at the 1900 block of Rutland Drive.

At the time of the shooting, the lounge was near full capacity and about 300 people were inside. Two victims reported minor injuries but 18-year-old Luis Alberto Rodriguez Tamayo was killed.

At a press conference Thursday, APD Homicide Detective Patrick O’Farrell said his team has some leads and even suspects, but they’re having trouble moving forward without a motive.

“Who the intended target was, I’m not sure,” O’Farrell said. “Through the course of our investigation, though, we have no reason to believe that Luis or the two people that were shot were the targets of the shooting. It appeared random, but we still just don’t know the exact motive for the shooting.”

O’Farrell added that Tamayo wasn’t doing anything wrong and wasn’t involved in any disturbances at the time of the shooting.

O’Farrell added that about an hour before the drive-by shooting, there was also an assault at that same hookah lounge. Police were able to arrest two people in that disturbance. They say they don’t think that fight was related to the shooting, but they’re not ruling it out, yet.

Four months and a day after his son’s death, Inaudis Rodriguez pleaded for witnesses to come forward.

“All that I want is justice, that somebody pays for that. That’s what I want. That’s what my family wants,” Rodriguez said.

Rodriguez says his son moved to Austin from Cuba four years ago and had just graduated from high school. He added that Tamayo was working to make enough money to bring his mom to Austin from Cuba, as well.

Police say they’ve checked security footage from the hookah lounge and other nearby businesses, but they’re hoping someone has cell phone video from that night.

“We’re asking for any witnesses, any type of cell phone video, if they know anything at all,” O’Farrell said, adding, “ Just because time has passed, doesn’t mean it’s not solvable.”

Anyone with information about this shooting is asked to contact Crime Stoppers at 512-472-TIPS, text “Tip 103” and a message to CRIMES, or email homicide.APD@austintexas.gov. Those who contact Crime Stoppers can remain anonymous.
