Carlos Chavez, 49, was fatally shot outside his West Side San Antonio home on April 21, 2020. He was found wounded on the sidewalk near the front gate of his house in the 300 block of Aldama and died at a hospital early the next morning.

Investigators say a small silver car pulled up next to Chavez and a passenger inside fired multiple times. Police initially did not have a clear motive. Phone records later showed communication between Chavez and his stepdaughter, Julie Ann Banda, before the shooting; those same records allegedly placed Banda at the scene. The registered owner of the silver car told authorities she had lent the vehicle to Banda and another man on the day of the shooting.

On April 3, 2022, Julie Ann Banda, 28, was arrested and charged with murder and was being held in the Bexar County Jail on $150,000 bond. No public statement has identified a motive. Does anyone have information about Chavez, his movements that day, or the people involved?
