Favian Ramirez was 16 when he was shot and killed on October 27, 2017, at John H. Sterling Memorial Park in San Antonio, Texas. Several teenagers had gathered at the park’s basketball court after an early school release; an argument between Ramirez and another 16-year-old boy escalated and the other teenager shot Ramirez in the chest. Ramirez was taken to a nearby hospital and died of his wounds.

The shooter, a juvenile, was taken into custody shortly after the incident. He was later convicted of Ramirez’s murder and, after being sentenced at age 17, received a 30-year term in the juvenile system. A hearing is scheduled for when the shooter turns 19 to decide whether he will remain in the juvenile system with possible parole or continue serving his sentence in an adult prison.

Anyone who knew Favian or who was at the park that day and has information that could shed light on what happened is asked to come forward.
