James Aaron Castillo, a 33-year-old Hispanic man, was shot to death on August 11, 2014, in a North Side mobile home community in San Antonio, Texas. Castillo and his girlfriend were driving through the neighborhood just after 10 p.m.; they stopped at a stop sign and several individuals approached their vehicle. An argument followed, both occupants exited the car, and both were attacked. Castillo’s girlfriend was placed in a chokehold and beaten while Castillo was shot in the back. He managed to drive a short distance before stopping, and emergency medical technicians pronounced him dead at the scene.

The suspected shooter fled on foot and remains unidentified. San Antonio Crime Stoppers offered a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest, and authorities have urged anyone with information to come forward. Castillo is remembered by family members including parents Gilbert and Isabel Castillo, brothers Gilbert Castillo Jr. and Christopher Castillo, sister Jennifer Goldberg, and his daughter Alexis Smith; a memorial service was held and contributions were encouraged to the local chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness.

Does anyone in the community recall seeing persons loitering or approaching a vehicle in that mobile home area around 10 p.m. on August 11, 2014?
