According to available details, Shrewsbury was on his overnight shift at Sonic when he was gunned down.

The Incidence

When Shrewsbury went out to take pictures of the license plate of the vehicle that Roberson was in, it is alleged that she got out and shot him in the chest. The Sonic manager somehow managed to make it back inside the restaurant but collapsed shortly afterwards and was pronounced dead at the scene.

A reward of up to $5,000 has been announced by the Department of Public Safety while Crime Stoppers of San Antonio is offering a similar reward. Tips can be submitted through Facebook or the DPS website. The authorities have assured that all tips submitted will be kept anonymous.
