William Bill Jones Jr., 75, was found shot to death in the driver’s seat of his vehicle at Cedar Gap Park at Stillhouse Hollow Lake in Harker Heights, Texas, on September 1, 2020. Bell County deputies discovered Jones with a gunshot wound to the chest around 7:35 p.m.; an autopsy was ordered to determine the official cause of death. The death was initially investigated as a murder, and officials said the incident appeared isolated with no ongoing threat to the public.

Jones had worked 12 years in the Killeen Independent School District transportation department. His death occurred the same day he was terminated following an accident in which a student was struck by a truck after exiting a bus; that student was airlifted with serious injuries and was reported in stable condition. No arrests or suspects have been named in connection with Jones’s killing.

Does anyone have information about Jones, the park that evening, or sightings that could help explain what happened?
