A welfare check at a Donaldson Avenue home in San Antonio on the afternoon of April 13, 2026, led officers to the body of 44-year-old Sheri Tolosa. She had been shot multiple times; her death was ruled a homicide. Family members prompted the check after a relative called the homeowner to say a shooting had occurred and the homeowner could not reach the people staying there.

Investigators quickly focused on 21-year-old Aaron Arocha, the homeowner’s nephew and a person who had been staying at the residence. Arocha allegedly confessed to a relative that he had shot someone at the house. Evidence indicates Tolosa was attempting to flee, with a chase described as beginning in the dining room and ending in the kitchen, where she was found holding a bag of food. Shell casings at the scene matched .380 caliber ammunition; a box of .380 rounds was reportedly found in Arocha’s vehicle the next day. An uncle told investigators Arocha said Santa Muerte made him kill Tolosa and that he shot her four times in the face while she had done nothing to provoke him. Arocha has been charged with murder and is being held on $500,000 bond.

Does anyone have information about Tolosa, her movements that afternoon, or the people who were staying at that house?
