Isaias Trevino, a 14‑year‑old boy from San Antonio, was shot and killed on Sunday night, February 15, 2026, while walking with a friend on the city’s Northeast Side. The Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed his identity after police responded to reports of gunfire around 8 p.m. in the 4700 block of Georges Farm, near Lakeview Drive and Foster Road.
Authorities said Trevino and his friend were heading to meet his mother at a nearby park after spending the afternoon riding scooters. As they walked, Trevino reportedly got into an argument with a stranger, which quickly escalated into violence. The suspect pulled out a firearm and shot Trevino in the torso before fleeing the scene.
Emergency responders rushed Trevino to a local hospital, but he succumbed to his injuries shortly after arrival. His death has left family members and the community devastated. Relatives described him as a sweet, well‑mannered teenager who was deeply involved in his church, serving as a choir singer, catechist, and preparing for his Catholic confirmation.
Police immediately launched a homicide investigation, canvassing the neighborhood for surveillance footage and interviewing witnesses. Detectives went door to door on Monday morning, hoping to gather video evidence that could help identify the shooter. As of now, the suspect remains at large, and authorities continue to urge anyone with information to come forward.
The shooting has shaken residents of the Northeast Side, who expressed concern about violence in their community. Trevino’s involvement in church activities and his reputation as a helpful, kind young man have made the loss even more painful for those who knew him. His mother, who was waiting for him at the park that evening, learned of the tragedy only when she saw police vehicles and ambulances near the scene.
Community leaders and church members have called for justice, remembering Trevino as a teenager who gave his time and energy to others. His death has underscored the urgency of addressing youth violence and ensuring safer neighborhoods. The investigation remains ongoing, with San Antonio police continuing their search for the suspect responsible for the fatal shooting.
