Naveah Martinez was 16 when she was found shot to death in the back seat of a stolen car in San Antonio on May 10, 2022. Officers responded to reports of gunfire around 12:30 a.m.; the vehicle was located in the 5100 block of War Horse on the city’s Southwest Side. Police said it was unclear whether Naveah was the intended target, and believe the shooting grew out of an earlier incident at a different location.

Homicide detectives have been working to identify who fired the shots. Two people were detained at the scene and questioned as witnesses. Naveah’s family described her as a sweet, happy teenager who enjoyed working with her father and hoped to run her own business. The community left flowers and messages where she was found as the family continues to seek answers and justice.

Did anyone in the community see or hear anything that night that might help investigators?
