On August 16, 2023, 47-year-old Jesús Reyes Tamez was found dead inside his pickup truck on Old Pearsall Road in southwest Bexar County, San Antonio, Texas. A passerby discovered the vehicle with Tamez slumped over in the driver’s seat and called authorities. The Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office ruled his death a homicide after determining he had suffered two gunshot wounds to the head.

Tamez, originally from Cadereyta, Jiménez, Nuevo León, México, was living in San Antonio at the time. He was survived by children Elizabel Tamez, Jesús Tamez, and Teresa Gómez; his companion Olga Yanet Montalvo Garza; and numerous siblings and grandchildren. A public viewing and rosary were held on August 23, 2023, at Grace Cathedral Church in San Antonio.

Few public details are available about what led to the killing. If anyone knew Jesús, his movements that day, or saw a pickup on Old Pearsall Road on August 16, 2023, please come forward with information.
