Bexar County deputies are asking for the public’s help as they search for a man they say took off after a Feb. 5 shooting in the 5500 block of Doncaster Drive on San Antonio’s Southeast Side. The Bexar County Sheriff's Office has identified the suspect as Trizeah Nathaniel Deleon Gomez, who they say fled in a gray Ford Bronco. Investigators warn he may be armed and are telling residents not to approach him under any circumstances.
What Deputies Say About the Suspect and SUV
In a Facebook post, the Bexar County Sheriff's Office described Gomez as a Hispanic male, about 5 feet 8 inches tall and roughly 250 pounds, with brown hair and black eyes. Deputies say he is known to frequent the Marbach area.
According to the sheriff’s office, Gomez has active warrants for possession of a controlled substance in Penalty Group 2 in an amount of four grams or more but less than 400 grams, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and abandoning an endangered child with intent to return. Deputies say he was last seen driving a 2025 gray Ford Bronco with Texas license plate XHD7265 and that he fled the scene before officers arrived.
How to Report Tips
The county’s official site lists the sheriff’s non-emergency dispatch line at 210-335-6000 and notes Crime Stoppers as an alternate option for tips. On its Bexar County report-a-crime page, officials stress that residents should call dispatch if they spot a wanted person rather than try to step in themselves. The sheriff’s Facebook post echoes that guidance and asks anyone with information on Gomez to contact the Violent Crimes Unit immediately.
Legal Context
Aggravated assault with a deadly weapon is defined in Texas Penal Code Section 22.02, where it is generally classified as a second-degree felony, with some circumstances that can raise the level of the charge. Possession of a Penalty Group 2 substance in an amount of four grams or more but less than 400 grams is set out in Texas Health & Safety Code §481.116 and is treated as a felony of the second degree.
Those are the statutory ranges on paper. Any actual charges or penalties would be determined in court if Gomez is arrested and prosecuted.
Why the Public Alert Matters
The sheriff’s office regularly turns to public alerts when it needs fresh eyes on an active investigation, and it is a playbook local outlets have seen work before. The Express-News has covered past Bexar County manhunts that leaned heavily on residents calling in tips to the sheriff’s office.
Here, deputies are underscoring the same message, with an extra layer of caution. Because they say Gomez may be armed, they are urging people to call law enforcement instead of attempting any kind of confrontation.
Anyone who has information about Gomez or the gray Ford Bronco described by deputies is asked to call Bexar County dispatch at 210-335-6000 or submit an anonymous tip to Crime Stoppers. The sheriff’s office repeated that warning in its Facebook post and said the case is being handled by investigators in the Violent Crimes Unit.
