Darnilio Garza, a 17-year-old Hispanic male from San Antonio, Texas, was tragically shot and killed on July 31, 2020. Garza was meeting three friends in his front yard when one of them ambushed him and shot him in the head. The incident occurred around 4:30 a.m., and Garza was pronounced dead at the scene. The San Antonio Police Department has stated that it appeared Garza was set up, as he had received an Instagram message from an account named "stretchgangbaby" just before the shooting,
asking him to meet outside.
Despite the passage of nearly four years, no arrests have been made in connection with Garza's murder. The case remains open, and SAPD continues to seek information from the public. Crime Stoppers is offering up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest. Garza's mother, Carol Falcon, has publicly pleaded for justice and peace, stating that she forgives the person responsible for her son's death.
The investigation into Garza's death has been challenging for the police, with no significant updates provided in recent years. The community and Garza's family continue to hope for a resolution and for the person or persons responsible to be brought to justice. The lack of progress in the case has been a source of frustration and pain for Garza's loved ones, who are still seeking closure and answers.
