HOUSTON — Ron Treviño has done it all in his 40 years at KHOU 11 News — from reporting, anchoring and producing newscasts.
Ron is a reporters' reporter. He's trusted and respected, and no stranger to having a little fun on the job because he never takes himself too seriously.
He's covered everything from the Houston Rockets' run to their first NBA championship in 1994 to stories that sent him overseas to cover war.
But the story he may be most remembered for is the tragic murder of budding Tejano star Selena. In 1995, she was killed by the president of her fan club.
"The woman has been identified as Yolanda Saldivar. She has been taken into custody. The standoff in Corpus Christi is now over," Ron reported back when it happened.
A year earlier, Ron had spend time with Selena in Corpus, talking about her growing career and plans for the future.
Forty years of covering triumph and disaster, Ron has had a front-row seat to Houston history.
Ron celebrates 40 years with the KHOU 11 News team Tuesday, July 19.
We will have special coverage dedicated to Ron throughout the day on KHOU 11 News, including a few surprised to honor his great work throughout the years, and no doubt, the great work he has yet to do.
