A night out at Myst Hookah + Ultra Lounge in San Antonio’s far North Side ended in fatal gunfire in the early hours of February 18, 2026. Derek Dashaun Brown, 27, who had roots in Panamá and worked at a local hospital for about a year, was struck in the chest and killed after a vehicle drove by the lounge and a passenger opened fire on the outdoor patio. A second man, Kyung Lee, 50, was also killed and both were found deceased when emergency personnel arrived.

Police say the shooting followed an altercation inside the lounge that led to a man and a woman being ejected by security. Surveillance footage reportedly shows those individuals leaving, getting into a gold Ford Fusion, and later the same vehicle returning and the shooting taking place. Within two days authorities arrested Joseph Anthony Amador, 34, and Lauren Tayler Machado-Juarez, 35; a search of the vehicle and an apartment linked to Amador yielded several firearms. Both suspects were charged with capital murder of multiple persons and were booked into the Bexar County jail.

Does anyone who was at Myst Hookah that morning or who remembers the gold Ford Fusion have information that could help the investigation?
