According to their online posting, a man — identified by Crime Stoppers as Joshua Solis, 23 — was sitting in his pickup truck in a Family Dollar parking lot.

Two men approached his vehicle, possibly attempting to rob him, Crime Stoppers said. Solis then drove away, but the men fired toward his vehicle multiple times.

KSAT previously reported that Solis was shot twice in the back and later passed away at the hospital. A woman was said to be with Solis; however, the Crime Stoppers posting does not mention her presence.

Crime Stoppers may pay up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest.

Tips can be made by calling Crime Stoppers at 210-224-STOP, texting “Tip 127 plus your tip” to CRIMES (274637) or using the P3 Tips app. Tipsters can remain anonymous.
