HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The family of a former member of a popular 90's R&B group, who was stabbed to death in southwest Houston, is pleading for the suspect to turn himself in.
Delores Floyd is facing what no parent should - having to bury her child. Her son, 46-year-old Cedrick Cotton, was killed in broad daylight at a place he went to often.
He'd ride his little bike, go there, get a quick cigarette. The next thing I know, I get this call and I heard people ... 'He comes here every day. He doesn't bother anybody. He's a good guy,'" she explained.
Tons of people flocked to Fondren Food Mart after the murder to see if it was someone they knew. Cedrick's uncle, William King, was among them.
"I saw him just lying there. I couldn't do nothing but just cry last night," King said.
Cotton was part of the R&B group 'Ideal', who came on the scene around 1999 and toured and performed for years after that. Cotton went by the stage name 'Swab.'
'Ideal' had an album and was best known for songs like "Whatever."
