Daniel Murphy, 21, was shot and killed on September 2, 2022, during an attempted robbery at the Alamo Estates Apartment Homes in the 8000 block of Midcrown in San Antonio. Police say a witness called to report a group breaking into an apartment and holding his brother at gunpoint; as officers were arriving, Murphy was shot inside the unit.

Three suspects were identified from the witness descriptions. Authorities arrested Deveon Taylor-White the day of the incident and later took Michael Lavelle Randle into custody. Taylor-White was charged with murder for allegedly pointing a gun at Murphy’s back and ordering another suspect to shoot him; Randle was identified as the shooter and also charged with murder. Both face first-degree felony counts being prosecuted in the 437th District Court.

The investigation is ongoing and the defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty. If anyone has information about Daniel Murphy or the events that night, please share what is known.
