March 13, 2006 -- Charges have been filed against a suspect wanted in the fatal beating of a man at 66 East Crosstimbers about 10:45 p.m. on Sunday (Mar. 12).

The suspect, Leon Lugo Andradé (H/m, DOB 4-11-70), is charged with murder in the 263rd State District Court. Andradé fled the scene driving in a 1989 green Chevrolet van with Texas license plates 273CRN. The driver's side door is a different color from the rest of the van.

The victim is identified as William Hsing Huang, 61, of 318 Oyster Creek in Sugar Land. He suffered multiple lacerations to the head and was pronounced dead at the scene.

HPD Homicide Division Sergeants C.W. Howard and M.W. McStravick reported:

Mr. Huang was locking up his restaurant at 66 East Crosstimbers as one of his employees and her daughter waited outside with him. Andradé, who is the stranged husband of the employee and father of the girl, drove up in the van and began asking who the man locking the door was. Andradé then attempted to physically assault Huang, but he ran. Andradé then grabbed a machete from his van and chased after Huang. Andradé caught up with Huang and then began striking him repeatedly with the machete.

Andradé and a second unidentified suspect in the van then fled in the vehicle.

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of suspect Leon Andradé is urged to contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
