Terrence Scott, 26, was fatally shot in the head during an altercation at Chaser’s Sports Bar on the North Side of San Antonio, Texas, around 1 a.m. on November 17, 2018. Police reports say Scott was pushed, punched 24-year-old Tremaurya Powell in response, and was then shot. Powell was arrested about a month later on outstanding warrants and charged with murder.

The murder charge against Powell was dismissed in 2023 amid significant gaps in the case; earlier court progress had been hampered by delays that included the COVID-19 pandemic. Powell was later convicted on a drug charge and released, and has recently been rearrested on unrelated felony family violence charges. Scott’s mother, Phyllis Little, has criticized the handling of the case and called for justice and better allocation of resources for Black murder cases in San Antonio.

Friends and family have urged safety improvements at Chaser’s Sports Bar; the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission has an open investigation into the bar. The case remains open and under investigation. Does anyone have information about the night of November 17, 2018, or about security issues at Chaser’s Sports Bar?
