Jonathan Murphy, 42, of San Antonio was killed on January 22, 2017, during an attempted robbery at the Kay Jewelers in Rolling Oaks Mall. He and his wife Aimee were having their wedding rings cleaned when two suspects tried to rob the store. Murphy and another bystander intervened; during the confrontation one of the suspects shot Murphy, who died protecting his wife and others.

Two suspects were identified as Jose Luis Rojas and Jason Matthew Prieto. Rojas later pleaded guilty to murder and aggravated robbery and was sentenced to life plus 20 years. Prieto fled the scene and was arrested a few days later and remained awaiting trial. Two other people suffered non-life-threatening gunshot wounds and were hospitalized.

Murphy was widely described as a Good Samaritan and remembered by family, friends and officials for his selflessness. His family set up a GoFundMe to help with funeral expenses and to support his wife and children. Does anyone who was at Rolling Oaks Mall that day or who knew Jonathan have information to share?
