Location : North Flores Street and West Commerce Street

City : San Antonio

County : Bexar

State : Texas

Agency : San Antonio Police Department

Officer(s) : Aaron Coronado, Jimmy Nance

Cause of Death : Gunshot

Event : Police shooting during stolen vehicle pursuit

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On 02/06/2025, Nathaniel Ray Moreno was killed by police following a vehicle pursuit in downtown San Antonio that was later determined to be unauthorized under San Antonio Police Department policy. A detective initiated and continued the pursuit without approval, drove a vehicle not permitted for pursuits, and failed to activate emergency lights and sirens as required. Despite these violations, the chase escalated and ended with officers opening fire on the vehicle Moreno was driving. He was struck by gunfire and died at the scene. Internal investigators later concluded that the initiating detective violated multiple pursuit and emergency-driving rules. Those policy failures are now central to civil litigation, with the shooting framed as the foreseeable outcome of an unauthorized and improperly conducted chase.

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On 02/06/2025, Nicholas Rodriguez, a 15-year-old passenger, was killed by police during a vehicle pursuit in downtown San Antonio that later became the subject of disciplinary findings and civil litigation. The pursuit that led to the shooting was initiated without authorization and violated department policy, including the use of an unapproved vehicle and failure to activate emergency equipment. Officers ultimately opened fire on the vehicle during the encounter, striking Rodriguez. He was transported to a hospital, where he later died from gunshot wounds. Subsequent internal investigations confirmed the chase should not have occurred under department rules, and the documented policy violations now form the basis of lawsuits challenging both the pursuit and the resulting use of deadly force.
