San Antonio Crime Stoppers is putting up as much as $5,000 for information that could finally crack the unsolved killing of 28-year-old security guard Andrew Reed Keller, who was found shot inside a South Side construction site on the night of Nov. 4, 2023, and was pronounced dead at the scene. Police say the case remains open and investigators are still looking for witnesses willing to come forward.
According to the San Antonio Express-News, Keller was on duty sometime between 10 and 11 p.m. when his supervisor discovered him in the 4600 block of South Zarzamora Street. The outlet reports he had suffered at least one gunshot wound and that investigators have not publicly identified any suspects. Authorities also noted that earlier in his shift Keller had escorted several people off the property for trespassing, though it is still unclear whether those encounters are tied to the shooting.
Reward details and how to tip
San Antonio Crime Stoppers has approved a reward of up to $5,000 for information that leads to the identification and arrest of whoever is responsible, according to KSAT. KSAT reports that tips can be sent in anonymously by calling 210-224-STOP, texting “Tip 127” plus the tip to CRIMES (274637), or using the P3 Tips app. Investigators say even small pieces of information, such as license plate numbers, dash-cam video or timing details, could be enough to push the case forward.
Who Keller was
Keller was originally from Honolulu and moved to Texas in 2001, and relatives told the San Antonio Express-News he had been studying agricultural business at Colorado State University. The paper reports he grew up working on his family ranch near Ira and was active in the Texas Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association. An obituary noted that he belonged to Phi Theta Kappa and had wide-ranging interests that included history, sports and learning to fly.
Investigators seeking new leads
The San Antonio Police Department is asking anyone who may have been in the Zarzamora corridor that night to look back at any video they might have, or to contact investigators, KSAT reports. Police are stressing that tips can be submitted anonymously, and Crime Stoppers will review reward eligibility if information leads to arrests. With no public charges filed and few answers nearly a year later, officials say help from the community is still the most promising path to a break in the case.
