Roger Allen, a 31-year-old African American man, was fatally shot on June 20, 2022, at a residence on Moon Rock near Wagner High School in San Antonio, Texas. His nephew, Jcoery Smith, has been identified as the shooter. Court testimony reports Smith called 911 soon after the shooting and said he had shot his uncle; Smith maintains Allen entered his home, threatened him, and took one of his weapons.

Prosecutors say Smith retrieved a handgun, chambered a round, and shot Allen after he had left the house, while the defense contends Smith’s account on the 911 call has been consistent and that he acted in self-defense. Allen’s wife testified he told her he was going over to fight Smith, and the defense pointed to Allen’s criminal record and described him as a violent person. The jury must decide whether Smith’s conduct was justified or constitutes murder.

Does anyone have information about the neighborhood around Moon Rock or witnessed events that evening?
