Jakayvin Jones, 22, a male from San Antonio, was found shot to death late on Wednesday, September 24, 2025, inside the Pecan Valley Golf Club Apartments on the city's Southeast Side. Calls about gunfire began just after 10:30 p.m., drawing officers to the complex near East Southcross Boulevard and Pecan Valley Drive. They initially left after finding no clear evidence of a shooting, but returned minutes later when more calls came in and a witness reported seeing a body in the parking lot.
Between two parked vehicles, first responders found Jakayvin Jones with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Neighbors described a chaotic, confused search through the dimly lit lot as patrol cars and ambulances circled the buildings trying to locate the victim. One resident recalled unknowingly walking past the body before realizing what had happened and then helping direct officers toward the correct area of the complex. Police later noted the property had been the source of repeated calls for service throughout the year, including another shooting less than two weeks earlier.
By the following day, the Bexar County Medical Examiner had publicly identified the victim as Jakayvin Jones, age 22, and confirmed he died of multiple gunshot wounds. San Antonio police said the motive was unknown and that they had no information to release on a suspect. The investigation remained active, with homicide detectives processing the scene and reviewing evidence from the apartment complex.
As of the latest reports, authorities had announced no arrests in the killing of Jakayvin Jones, 22, male, and no suspect description had been released. Police urged anyone with information to contact the homicide division as they continued to piece together the timeline of events and determine who fired the shots that ended his life in the parking lot that night.
