Man charged in connection with shooting death of gas station clerk

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- A man has been charged with murder in connection with the death of a woman killed while working at a gas station in northwest Harris County.

Sheriff Ed Gonzalez sent a tweet Friday night saying 20-year-old Marcus Kenneth Cox-Davis was arrested during a traffic stop.

Gonzalez said on March 8, 2019, two men went inside the Shell gas station on Perry Road near FM-1960 where they robbed and killed Donna Pena.

"At the time of the murder, it was believed that the suspects could be part of a robbery crew," said Gonzalez in a tweet.

Harris County homicide investigators released surveillance video of the killers last year.
