The San Antonio Police Department is actively seeking a person of interest linked to a fatal shooting incident at a house party, which resulted in the death of 17-year-old Enrique Damian Villanueva. The victim succumbed to a gunshot wound to the head after an argument escalated into violence, according to information provided by KSAT.

Police responded to the emergency at around 1:30 a.m. last Saturday at a residence located in the 5900 block of Lopez Valley Road in southwest Bexar County, where they discovered Villanueva with the fatal injury they pronounced him dead at the scene and a subsequent investigation indicated Villanueva had been in a dispute with a suspect, who then produced a firearm and discharged it. The Bexar County Medical Examiner's Office has since confirmed Villanueva's identity and the cause of death.

In the pursuit of justice and information, police have released a photo obtained from a doorbell camera in hopes that the public can assist in identifying the suspect, also looking for witnesses who might have been present at the time of the incident, as reported by News 4 San Antonio.

The San Antonio Police are urging anyone with relevant information to come forward and contact the SAPD Homicide Division at (210) 207-7635.
