Jason Widner, 29, was shot to death on September 21, 2014, at an apartment complex on the 1200 block of Patricia Drive in San Antonio. He sustained a gunshot wound to the stomach and the Bexar County Medical Examiner confirmed his identity and cause of death.

According to the San Antonio Police Department, Widner confronted 25-year-old Codey Southerland about a reportedly stolen handgun. Southerland ran into his apartment, Widner followed, and as Widner chased him down a stairwell Southerland turned and shot him. Police said the circumstances did not support a self-defense claim; Southerland was arrested, charged with murder and held on $50,000 bond.

The dispute over the handgun is described as the immediate trigger for the fatal confrontation. If anyone knew Widner or witnessed events at the Patricia Drive complex that night, please come forward with information.
