On May 10, 2021, James Melgar, an 18-year-old from Martindale, Texas, was shot and killed near the intersection of Northwest River Road and Scull Road. Deputies found Melgar and another teenager, 17-year-old Adian Zulaica, with gunshot wounds beside a vehicle after a 911 call reporting gunfire; Melgar was declared dead at the scene and Zulaica later died at Seton Hays Hospital.

The Caldwell County Sheriff’s Office identified two suspects, 29-year-old Michael Adam Morris and 29-year-old Olivia Oliva, who were arrested the next day, May 11, 2021, in Hays County and charged with capital murder. Both were booked into the Caldwell County Jail without bond, and investigators said they do not believe additional suspects were involved. Motive and the relationship between victims and suspects have not been disclosed.

Does anyone have information about James, Adian, or what led to the shooting that could help clarify what happened?
