Richard Chapa, 38, of San Antonio died on December 29, 2014, after a botched drug deal on the 5900 block of Stoney Creek Drive. He and two companions had gone to buy $300 worth of marijuana when the men they planned to meet attempted to rob them. As Chapa and the others tried to flee, the suspects fired multiple rounds at their car; Chapa was struck and taken to Southwest General Hospital with a gunshot wound to the leg but was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Two suspects were arrested in connection with the killing: 17-year-old Gerardo Raul Rodriguez and 19-year-old Sergio Cisneros. Rodriguez was taken into custody a few days after the shooting; Cisneros later turned himself in in Laredo after initially seeking help at a fire station. No additional suspects were identified.

Anyone who knew Chapa, witnessed activity on Stoney Creek Drive that night, or has information about the case is asked to come forward.
