A tragic shooting on Sunday night claimed the life of 32-year-old Kianna Cachae Mayberry, who was gunned down while sitting in her car in her driveway on San Antonio’s Northwest Side.

The Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed her identity following the late-night attack that has left family, friends, and neighbors heartbroken.

The deadly shooting around 10:30 p.m. at a home off Hickory Springs near Babcock Road.

According to investigators, a white sedan was parked a few houses down from the victim’s home.

When Mayberry stepped outside and entered her vehicle, three suspects approached her car and opened fire before fleeing the scene.

Mayberry was struck multiple times, including in the neck and head. Emergency responders rushed her to the hospital, but she succumbed to her injuries shortly after arrival.

Neighbor Alfred Garcia, who was house-sitting across the street, recalled the terrifying moments leading up to the discovery.

“I was actually just out on the back porch with a friend, and we heard maybe around ten gunshots—it was rapid fire,” Garcia said.

Another neighbor described the aftermath, saying,

Residents said Mayberry had recently moved to the area and was known to be quiet and private.

The shocking violence has left the neighborhood unsettled, with many questioning how such a brutal act could unfold in their usually peaceful community.

As of now, no arrests have been made, and the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office continues to search for the suspects involved in the shooting.

In the wake of her death, social media has been filled with tributes and grief-stricken posts from those who knew Mayberry personally.

Frank Matthews, one of her close friends, expressed disbelief and sorrow:

Another friend, Nikkie Hardeman, shared a heartfelt message reflecting on their complicated but meaningful friendship:

Blacc Tootie also honored her memory, writing,

The community continues to mourn the loss of a young woman whose life was senselessly cut short.

As investigators pursue leads, loved ones cling to memories of Mayberry’s kindness, resilience, and the joy she brought to those around her.

Police are urging anyone with information about the shooting to come forward.
