SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio police are asking the public for help to find a suspect in connection with a fatal shooting at a house party last month.

When they arrived, officers said they found a victim in the backyard with an apparent gunshot wound. Emergency personnel pronounced him dead at the scene.

The Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the victim as Enrique Damian Villanueva, 17, who died as a result of a gunshot wound to the head.

Police said that a subsequent investigation found that Villanueva was arguing with someone at a Halloween party where students from several local high schools attended. The person then pulled a gun and fired at Villanueva.

The shooter fled the location with three other friends, police said.

SAPD detectives are asking anyone who attended the party who didn’t speak to police to come forward and provide any videos, images or statements from the party.

If you recognize the person in the photo, call Crime Stoppers at 210-224-7867 (STOP). To text a tip, text “Tip 127 plus your tip” to CRIMES (274637).

You can also leave a tip on the P3 Tips app that can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play.

Tips can also be submitted on the Crime Stoppers website.

Crime Stoppers may pay up to $5,000 for information that leads to felony arrests in this crime.
