On April 19, 2008, Salvador Sixtos, 31, was shot while in the 2400 block of Ceralvo Street in San Antonio, Texas. After being shot, Sixtos' friends drove him to a nearby fire station, and he was subsequently taken to Wilford Hall Medical Center for treatment. Tragically, Sixtos remained in the hospital for over a year before he passed away from his injuries on September 22, 2009. Authorities have offered a reward of up to $5,000 for any information leading to an arrest in connection with his death, as the case remains unsolved.
The crime took place in a period marked by high levels of violent incidents in San Antonio, where shootings and homicides were relatively frequent. Many of these cases remain cold, with ongoing investigations led by local authorities, including the San Antonio Police Department's Cold Case Review Team. This specialized unit works with former law enforcement officers, forensic experts, and medical personnel to solve long-standing cases like that of Salvador Sixtos.
Anyone with information about the homicide is urged to contact the San Antonio Police Department or Crime Stoppers, as even small details can potentially bring justice and closure to Sixtos' family.
