SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio police and Crime Stoppers are searching for a man accused of fatally shooting a 15-year-old boy during an argument at a West Side convenience store last month.

At around 11 p.m., an unknown male pulled up in a dark gray Ford Focus, and an argument between the man and Guenther erupted, according to a Crime Stoppers report.

The man then pulled out a gun and opened fire on Guenther and his friends, who got into their vehicles and drove off.
