Bobby Borrego, a 49-year-old Hispanic man from San Antonio, was shot and killed on April 20, 2021 in the backyard shed of his home on Clutter Drive near Pyron Avenue, close to the San Antonio Missions. The Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed his identity and cause of death. Borrego’s girlfriend, Krystal Vela, discovered his body and said the scene was disturbing: the suspect allegedly had spray-painted Borrego’s face and boots with chrome paint and wrote messages such as I win and Who’s next on Borrego’s truck.

San Antonio police officers confronted 36-year-old Brian Deleon in the backyard; body camera footage shows Deleon admitted to shooting Borrego and, after refusing repeated commands to drop his weapon, fired at officers. Officers returned fire, and Deleon died of multiple gunshot wounds. The police department conducted an internal review.

Borrego was remembered by family and friends as kind and caring. Does anyone have information about Borrego’s relationship with Deleon or what led to the shooting?
