On January 23, 2020, 15-year-old Spencer Nobles, a student at Coleman Junior High School in Waxahachie, Texas, was shot inside a home in the 800 block of East Main Street and later pronounced dead at Baylor Scott and White Hospital. Police answered a shots fired call around 10 p.m. and found Nobles with a gunshot wound.

Authorities have not released details about who fired the shot or any possible motive. Investigators described the death as unexplained and possibly accidental while awaiting the medical examiner’s findings. No suspects have been identified, and police say they are not actively looking for anyone in connection with the shooting.

Family and the community mourned Spencer. His grandmother, Tracy Donalson, remembered him as a happy, smart and adventurous boy who loved skateboarding and catching squirrels. A candlelight vigil was held and counselors were made available at his school as people coped with the loss.
