Christopher Paul Fuentes, 43, was shot and killed in the early hours of November 9, 2024, in San Antonio after an argument earlier that evening at a bar. Christopher, his daughter and the daughter’s boyfriend, Franco Xavier Summers, left the bar and walked to a Taco Palenque on Blanco Road. Surveillance footage shows Summers follow them in a vehicle, pull alongside in the restaurant parking lot, and fire multiple shots from inside the car after a brief exchange and a struggle; Christopher staggered and collapsed and was pronounced dead at the scene. His daughter escaped into the restaurant.

Summers fled but was identified by witnesses, including Christopher’s daughter, and was arrested the next day at an apartment complex. Investigators and the family noted Summers had a lengthy criminal history, including a 2013 murder charge that was dismissed after a self-defense claim and a 2019 hostage standoff that resulted in prison time. Christopher’s family described him as devout, devoted to his family and the person who could light up a room.

Did anyone who knew Christopher or who was at the bar or Taco Palenque that night see anything else that could help the case?
