Marquise Durran Singer, 37, male, was shot and killed on the afternoon of May 17, 2025, at the Laurel Glen Apartments on San Antonio’s Northwest Side. Police were called just before 1 p.m. to the 11100 block of West Loop 1604 North, where they found Singer mortally wounded; the Bexar County Medical Examiner later identified him and ruled the death a homicide.
According to investigators, the shooter was a 28-year-old woman who had previously been in a relationship with Singer.
Reporting from that day indicates the confrontation unfolded at her apartment, where several children were inside. She was detained at the scene after officers recovered a weapon, and detectives questioned her as they worked to determine whether the shooting might be claimed as self-defense.
Local coverage also referenced surveillance-video audio suggesting the woman had a protective order against Singer; police, however, did not immediately confirm that detail. As of initial reports in the days following the shooting, authorities said the woman accused in the killing had not been arrested, and no charges had been announced.
Community memorial listings later recorded Singer’s death on May 17 in San Antonio, aligning with the medical examiner’s identification and the police account of a fatal shooting at the apartment complex.
