A Texas mother's world has been shattered after her teenage son was brutally gunned down in what authorities believe was a love triangle turned deadly. Maryann Marble is now pleading for justice as her son's killers remain at large.
A Mother's Worst Nightmare
Isaiah Perales, just 19 years old, was shot multiple times on September 13th in northwest Houston. The vibrant young man was pronounced dead at the scene, leaving his family devastated and searching for answers.
"He was my baby," Marble told DailyMail.com through tears. "He had his whole life ahead of him. I just want justice for my son."
The Tragic Confrontation
According to court documents and family accounts, the tragedy unfolded when Perales confronted 20-year-old Bryan Salazar about messages Salazar had allegedly been sending to Perales' girlfriend. What began as a verbal altercation quickly turned violent.
Investigators believe Salazar and another unidentified suspect opened fire on Perales, striking him multiple times before fleeing the scene. The Harris County Sheriff's Office has issued an arrest warrant for Salazar on murder charges, but both suspects remain at large.
A Life Cut Short
Perales is remembered by his family as a "kind-hearted young man" who cherished time with his loved ones. His mother described him as someone who "lit up every room he walked into" and had dreams of building a future.
"He didn't deserve this," Marble stated. "No mother should have to bury her child, especially not like this."
The Search for Justice Continues
Authorities are urging anyone with information about the shooting or the whereabouts of Bryan Salazar to come forward. The Harris County Sheriff's Office has assured the public they're pursuing all leads in the case.
Meanwhile, a grieving mother waits for answers, hoping that those responsible for cutting her son's life short will be brought to justice. The community has rallied around the family, offering support during this unimaginable tragedy.
As the investigation continues, Maryann Marble's plea echoes through the Texas community: "Please, if anyone knows anything, come forward. Help me get justice for my Isaiah."
