Jared Michael Tristan, 29, was shot and killed on June 2, 2020, on the 400 block of Alpine Street in Killeen, Texas after a confrontation. Police say Tristan arrived at a residence, had a verbal argument with a woman, and then became involved in a physical altercation with a male friend of hers. After they separated, Tristan produced a knife; the other man retrieved a handgun and fired. Officers performed life-saving measures but Tristan was pronounced dead at the scene.

A suspect was identified and detained, and detectives with the Criminal Investigation Division continued to investigate while more information was expected to be released. Tristan was known as Mikey, Jeremy, MacGyver and Funnie Mann, was father to two young children, Kylie and Jared Michael Jr., and had recently opened a BBQ food truck called TNT BBQ.

Anyone who knew Tristan, his movements that day, or who has information about the shooting is urged to come forward.
