Brandon James, 23, of San Antonio was fatally shot on September 16, 2016, in the parking lot of Hosanna Assembly of God church on the city’s Northwest Side. The shooting occurred about 5:45 p.m.; James was found with multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police arrested 41-year-old Jesse Salinas the next day and charged him with first-degree murder. Investigators say Salinas and James had argued before the shooting. Salinas reportedly fled in a blue truck and was later located and taken into custody at a motel without incident. Police received tips from the public and reviewed video footage from a local news station during the investigation. Salinas did not confess and authorities did not disclose a motive; his prior criminal history was noted but not specified. If convicted, he faced a sentence of five to 99 years.

Anyone who knew Brandon James, witnessed the incident, or has information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
