13-Year-Old Confesses to Fatal Shooting in Carjacking Attempt, SAPD Reports

65-Year-Old Muhammad Azir Killed Outside Walmart on Blanco Road, San Antonio Police Apprehend Young Teen in Lethal Carjacking Incident

San Antonio police have apprehended a 13-year-old boy for his involvement in a fatal attempted carjacking that occurred on Saturday afternoon. A preliminary investigation released on Monday morning confirmed the teen’s arrest, who shockingly confessed to the murder of 65-year-old Muhammad Khan Pazir. The incident unfolded in the parking lot of a Walmart on the 12600 block of Blanco Road, in full daylight, according to SAPD officials.

Officer Ricardo Guzman, speaking for the SAPD, detailed how the confrontation escalated, resulting in Pazir’s death on the scene. Immediate witness accounts from the parking area provided crucial leads, including a description of the suspect’s escape vehicle. This vehicle was later located at an apartment complex on Sahara Drive, leading to the detention of four individuals attempting to flee in the stolen car. Among them, the 13-year-old, who was driving and admitted to the shooting, now faces charges of capital murder, illegal firearm possession, and vehicle theft. He was also wanted on an unrelated warrant.

While the police have withheld the suspect’s identity due to his minor status, the involvement of other individuals and the nature of their participation in the crime remains unclear, highlighting potential gaps in the current report.
