Ambrett Daronette Seabron, a 33-year-old African American woman, tragically lost her life on February 1, 2020, in San Antonio, Texas. She was fatally shot in the living room of her apartment at the Parc at Wall Street Apartments. The incident occurred around 11:40 p.m. when an alleged gunman knocked on her door and opened fire on her and a man who was with her.
The male victim was critically injured and transported to a hospital, while Seabron was pronounced dead at the scene.
The suspect, identified as David Gustavo Donjuan, was arrested on February 12, 2020, after a thorough investigation that included surveillance video and cellphone location data. Donjuan was charged with murder and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. According to police, Seabron and Donjuan knew each other, and phone records indicated that Donjuan had been in contact with Seabron multiple times in the days leading up to the shooting. Donjuan's vehicle was seen entering and leaving the apartment complex on the night of the incident, and he was later found to have traveled to Mexico two days after the shooting.
In September 2023, Donjuan was sentenced to 25 years in prison for the murder of Seabron. The court found sufficient evidence to convict him, including surveillance footage and cellphone records placing him at the scene. The tragic loss of Seabron, who had been a dedicated teacher at Cameron Elementary School for 12 years, deeply affected her family, friends, and the community.
The case highlights the importance of community safety and the devastating impact of gun violence. Seabron's memory lives on through the tributes and condolences from those who knew her and the lasting impact she had as an educator.
