The indictment alleges Huron “intentionally and knowingly caused the death of Anthony Joseph Huron by shooting him with a deadly weapon (firearm).”
According to a previous KSAT report, Huron had originally told a 911 dispatcher that his father had died by suicide in his home in the 300 block of Lyric Street on Thursday, May 13.
However, further into the call with the dispatcher, he admitted to having fatally shot his father.
When officers arrived on scene, they found Jason Huron’s father, Anthony Huron, deceased in the living room with a gunshot wound.
Police said Jason Huron had admitted to his father’s killing during questioning. He was later booked and charged with murder.
Jason Huron faces between five to 99 years, or life behind bars and a possible fine of up to $10,000.
