Pacheco had been detained without incident after the Sept. 26 shooting in the 2000 block of South Zarzamora Street.
On Wednesday morning, the Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the victim as John Daniel Cuevas, 35.
Cuevas died from gunshot wounds connected to a homicide, the ME’s office ruled.
Pacheco and Cuevas were allegedly arguing in the parking lot of the complex. Pacheco later went inside his apartment and fired several shots through the door, striking Cuevas in the abdomen and leg, an SAPD preliminary report said.
Officers arrived on scene and provided medical aid to Cuevas before other first responders arrived. He was taken to the hospital and later pronounced dead, police said.
Pacheco faces a $350,000 bond, court records show.
Pacheco had a previous murder charge dismissed due to insufficient evidence, court records show. The case was reopened, but has not progressed since September 2022.
