San Antonio police reported the shooting was accidental and that a 14-year-old boy who was playing with a gun fired the shot. Julian was taken to the hospital but succumbed to his injuries.

The 14-year-old was charged with manslaughter; because of his age he was not publicly identified. The case attracted attention for its connection to child-involved gun accidents and prompted calls for better firearm safety and education.
