On February 28, 2023, at about 1:30 p.m., two men in their 30s were standing outside Walters Food Mart in the 2100 block of Burnet Street on San Antonio’s East Side when occupants of a white sedan traveling northbound opened fire with semi-automatic rifles. More than 60 rounds were fired; shell casings were left at the scene.

One victim, 31-year-old Jerome Joseph Crenshaw, suffered critical injuries, was taken to a nearby hospital, and was later pronounced dead. A second man was shot in the legs and hospitalized in stable condition. San Antonio Police canvassed the area but, despite the daylight attack, no witnesses have come forward and no arrests have been announced.

Jerome was born to Jerome Crenshaw Jr. and Rhonda Crenshaw and is remembered by family and friends as a beloved son. The investigation remains active; anyone with information about the shooting is asked to contact authorities.
