Angelo Polendo, a 37-year-old Hispanic man, was found motionless and bleeding from his head on October 11, 2016, at the intersection of North Sabinas and Lombrano streets in San Antonio, Texas. He suffered severe head trauma, was taken to University Hospital and pronounced dead at 4:29 a.m.; the Bexar County Medical Examiner confirmed his death. His mother, Alyssa Polendo, remembered him as a loving son and charismatic friend.

Witnesses said Polendo had been among several people in a vehicle that pulled up at the intersection for a drug transaction when a man approached from behind and multiple gunshots were fired. One person checked on Polendo, then left in a vehicle. Days later a witness told investigators that Fabian X. Pena, 19, confessed to shooting Polendo and running over him, and another witness placed Donnye S. Green, 20, with Pena at the scene. Both were arrested and charged with capital murder, but those charges were dismissed in December 2016 for insufficient evidence.

The investigation remained open; by October 2020 police were still seeking tips and Crime Stoppers offered up to a $5,000 reward. Who in the area on October 11, 2016, remembers seeing or hearing anything that could help resolve this case?
