BCSO seeks leads from public in connection with homicide investigation

Deputies found a man dead with apparent gunshot wounds on Sunday evening

BEXAR COUNTY, Texas – The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office is requesting assistance from the public in connection with a homicide investigation.

Deputies had responded to a report of an injured man around 6 p.m. Sunday in the 12200 block of U.S. Highway 181 southbound.

Upon arrival, BCSO said its deputies located a man, later identified as David Verdecanna, 60, dead at a business with apparent gunshot wounds.

At this time, it’s unclear what led to the gunfire. Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar said Tuesday that Verdecanna’s wife had first found him inside the business.

According to the Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office, Verdecanna’s cause of death was a gunshot wound to the head.

Salazar said the sheriff’s office does not know why Verdecanna was fatally shot.

Anyone with relevant information on the investigation is asked to contact BCSO at 210-335-6000. Tips can also be emailed to bcsotips@bexar.org .

“Any information, no matter how small, may be critical to this investigation,” the sheriff’s office said.
