Jason Cuevas, 17, a Hispanic male, was shot and killed outside the Paddock on Park Row Apartments in Arlington on the afternoon of May 29, 2025. Responding officers found Jason and his older brother, Bryan, outside one of the buildings around 5:10–5:11 p.m.; both were transported to a nearby hospital and later pronounced dead. The brothers did not live at the complex.

Investigators say the brothers had arranged a meeting at the apartment complex for what police described as a high-risk transaction that turned deadly. Multiple firearms were recovered at the scene. About 20 minutes after the first 911 calls, a separate report came in from Sherry Street, nearly four miles away, about a man shot in the leg; officers found 19-year-old Xavier Weddington there. A witness from the apartment complex later identified Weddington as the shooter and picked him from a photo lineup. On May 30 the U.S. Marshals North Texas Fugitive Task Force located and arrested Weddington in Grand Prairie; he was booked into the Arlington City Jail and transferred to the Tarrant County Jail and charged with capital murder in the deaths of Jason and Bryan Cuevas, while police said the investigation remains active.

Did anyone in the area see the brothers before they arrived at the complex or witness the meeting that led to the shooting?
