A family member told KSAT that Papen was getting ready to pick up his daughters for a family birthday party and walked out of his apartment, while his partner remained inside for two minutes to finish getting ready.
Papen’s partner then left the apartment but couldn’t find him and reported him missing to the police.
Papen’s body was found just over 24 hours later around 7 p.m. in an apartment two doors down from his own.
Preliminary information from the San Antonio Police Department states that a neighbor found Papen dead inside of her apartment and called the police.
Officers arrived and found Papen’s body in the neighbor’s living room.
“Anyone that knew Jarrod loved him. He had a never-ending supply of energy and love,” his brother told KSAT.
Homicide detectives and crime scene investigators processed the scene but so far no arrests have been made.
