Police said Moring shot himself in the front yard of his home around 4 p.m. Sunday in the 8500 block of Pendragon shortly after an explosion and fire at the home.

Several neighbors told KSAT 12 News that Moring was going through a divorce.

"I understand they were going through a real bad divorce. That might be something (to do) with it," neighbor Ralph Kelley said.

No one else was home at the time.

The fire is being investigated as arson.
