On April 14, 2023, 54-year-old Larry Alan Wilson was found shot to death in the driver’s seat of his white Ford Expedition in the 8100 block of Cross Creek Drive, near Austin Highway on San Antonio’s Northeast Side. Witnesses reported a man standing at the passenger side firing multiple shots and then fleeing with a backpack. Wilson’s last communication came five minutes before police received the first call reporting the shooting.

Investigators linked the case to activity on the dating app Grindr; Wilson had been communicating with someone who identified as Derek and arranged to meet at the Banyan Tree Apartments, with Derek saying he would wear a red jacket. Fingerprint evidence on a condom wrapper at the scene matched 22-year-old Jer Auntey Bernard Pleasant. Ballistics and fingerprints later connected Pleasant to a second killing on April 15, 2023.

Pleasant was arrested and charged with two counts of murder with a combined bond of $700,000. Wilson’s family described him as generous, fond of riding motorcycles and spending time with his big brother. Did anyone in the area know Larry or his movements that night, or recognize the person in a red jacket seen near his vehicle?
