Landyn Reyes, 17, was found dead in a San Antonio residential area on August 4, 2024, after authorities responded to an emergency call that indicated a possible homicide. Investigators determined Reyes had suffered multiple injuries and treated the death as suspected foul play. Reports say he had been involved in an altercation before he died, though details of that encounter were unclear several days later.

Police publicly explored possible motives including a personal dispute or ongoing conflict, and early theories mentioned potential gang involvement, but no motive was officially confirmed. On August 10, 2024, San Antonio police announced the arrest of a 19-year-old male they linked to the scene by physical evidence and witness statements. Investigators said they were still probing the roles of additional acquaintances of both Reyes and the arrested suspect.

Memorials appeared near where Reyes was found and community members called for justice and efforts to curb youth violence. If anyone knew Landyn, his movements that day, or saw suspicious activity in that neighborhood on August 4, please come forward with information.
