Ernesto Hernandez was a fictional character from The City: Houston. He appeared in only two seasons before being killed off in season 10.

Season 9
Ernesto first appears kidnapping Ivan. He and Ivan escape from Houston to Harlem, New York. When Damian, Arman, Joshua, and Tony arrive at Harlem, Ernesto shoots Damian in the arm before surrendering to Arman, and Tony arrests him. Later, he was sentenced to fifteen years in prison. Prior to his sentence, however, he sent Ivan a box of oxycodone, a powerful drug. Ivan ends up taking it before he falls for his death due to drug overdose. While in prison, Joshua comes by to visit. Ernesto begs for him to break him out, and because he was his friend, Joshua did what he asked. Later on, he and Joshua kidnap Arman and then they kill Damian while he was inside the factory they blew up. Despite completing his plans, he ends up being locked up in a steeled box by Damian and his gang.

Season 10
When Arman attempts to seek revenge on Damian, he turned to Ernesto for help. Despite Arman going against his back, he helps him anyway. They first spark trouble when they set a bomb on Andrew's flight to Los Angeles, which blew up, killing him instantly. However, Arman ended ways with Ernesto as he discovered from Damian that he has been using him for all this time. Damian and Arman's attempt to defeat Ernesto did not start well as planned, as they were captured by Ernesto himself. He then goes to the lowest floor of the base to set a bomb to kill Damian and Arman. However, the duo escaped and when Ernesto caught them in the lowest floor, the bomb exploded, causing deadly damage. Ernesto is later bludgeoned to death in the head by Damian and his body is burnt to death before the base completely falls apart.
