Jazmine Barnes Father Speaks Out, More Available Information

A grieving father has asked for the public to come forward and assist police in their continued search for the gunman who killed his 7-year-old daughter near a Walmart outside of Houston early Sunday morning, PEOPLE confirms.

“I just want anybody, whoever, out there that knows anything about the murder of my daughter, to just please step up as if it was your own,” said Christopher Cevilla, addressing news cameras during a press conference, Monday, on the drive-by shooting that killed his little girl, Jazmine Barnes.

“Just put yourself in my shoes — in my family’s shoes,” Cevilla implored.

Jazmine was with her mother and three siblings shortly before 7 a.m. local time on Sunday when investigators say a man pulled up next to them in a red or maroon pickup truck.

The suspect fired several shots at the vehicle. One bullet found Jazmine, killing her instantly.

The station reports that Jazmine was enrolled in the second grade at Monahan Elementary in Houston.

At Monday’s press conference, Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez spoke to the shooter, encouraging him to turn himself over to authorities, warning: “We’re going to find you.”
