Eric Perez, 22, was shot and killed on June 29, 2016, while walking on West Avenue in San Antonio, Texas. The shooting happened around 7 p.m. in the 4700 block of West Avenue near a gas station; Perez was struck once in the chest and found lying partly on the sidewalk and in the street when officers arrived.

Witnesses saw a sedan leave the scene but gave conflicting reports on its color, one saying white and another saying black. Early confusion about whether Perez had just gotten off a VIA bus was cleared up when officials confirmed no buses were operating in that area at the time. Perez was from Brownsville and was the grandson of former Cameron County Sheriff Alex Perez; his family said they were deeply grieved and he was laid to rest soon after.

San Antonio police report no significant progress in identifying or apprehending the shooter and continue to seek the public’s help. If anyone has information about what happened, contact the San Antonio Police Department or Crime Stoppers.
