Sae Trae Williams, 19, was fatally shot outside a gentleman’s club on the northeast side of San Antonio on May 10, 2025. Officers found Williams with a gunshot wound to the chest in the parking lot of a sexually oriented business on the 2500 block of NE Loop 410 around 5 a.m.; emergency personnel pronounced him dead at the scene.

Investigators say a disturbance broke out in the parking lot before the shooting, though the exact nature of that altercation and the motive remain unclear. Authorities took an individual into custody in connection with the incident, but details about the person’s identity and any charges have not been released; some reports say the detained person was later released and no formal arrests have been announced.

Williams’ family and community have organized a fundraiser to help cover burial expenses, with plans for a tentative burial on May 23, 2025. Anyone who saw the disturbance that morning or has information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
