The shooting happened around 11 p.m. on July 16 at an apartment complex in the 1900 block of Potosi Street, not far from Hidalgo Street.
The victim, later identified by the Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office as 34-year-old Raul Zuniga, was pronounced dead on the scene, according to San Antonio police.
