Robert Carbonell Diaz, 37, was shot and killed while working as an Uber driver on the Northeast Side of San Antonio on the evening of March 9, 2023. Around 8 p.m., people nearby heard multiple gunshots near Gibbs-Sprawl Road and Castle Cross Drive and saw someone run away from Diaz’s vehicle. Officers found Diaz unresponsive in the driver’s seat with multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Police determined Diaz was on an active Uber trip and identified the passenger as Dominique Croom. Witness accounts and surveillance video showing a man matching Croom’s description fleeing the scene, plus other evidence, led to Croom’s arrest on March 16, 2023; he was charged with murder and criminal trespass. The trial record shows DNA, fingerprints, surveillance footage of the pickup, and testimony that Croom’s cellphone and blood were recovered from the back of the victim’s vehicle.

The jury returned a guilty verdict on February 6, 2026, and the court sentenced Croom to life in prison on March 20, 2026. Does anyone have information about Diaz’s work routes or the area around Gibbs-Sprawl Road and Castle Cross Drive that could shed more light on what happened that night?
