The "King of the Hill" star was involved in a fatal shooting on Sunday. Jonathan Joss/Facebook What To Know Police responded to a call in south San Antonio around 7 p.m. on Sunday, where they found an injured man near the street. "The officers attempted life saving measures until EMS arrived. EMS pronounced the victim deceased," the SAPD said, per The Associated Press. Joss' husband, Tristan Kern de Gonzales, said in a statement posted to Facebook that he and Joss were "checking the mail" at their former San Antonio home, which had previously been the target of arson. In January, ABC's San Antonio station KSAT-TV reported that their home—which had been built by Joss' father—had burned down, killing several of their dogs. According to de Gonzales, who wed Joss on Valentine's Day this year, "A man approached us. He started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised a gun from his lap and fired." "Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone," he continued. "When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life." Tristan Kern de Gonzales added: "He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other." Sigfredo Alvarez Ceja, 56, was later arrested and charged with murder in Joss' death. On Monday, the SAPD released a statement via X, formerly Twitter, about the shooting: "SAPD Homicide is currently investigating the murder of Mr. Jonathan Joss. Despite online claims of this being a hate crime, currently the investigation has found no evidence to indicate that the Mr. Joss's murder was related to his sexual orientation." A separate SAPD X post read: "SAPD investigators handle these allegations very seriously and have thoroughly reviewed all available information. Should any new evidence come to light, the suspect will be charged accordingly." What People Are Saying King of the Hill actor Toby Huss, who most notably starred as Kahn Souphanousinphone and Cotton Hill on the show, wrote via his Instagram Stories: "RIP old friend. Godspeed." Parks and Recreation co-star Chris Pratt posted to his Instagram Stories: "Damn. RIP Jonathan. Always such a kind dude. He played Ken Hotate in Parks and was also in Mag 7 [The Magnificent Seven]. Sad to see. Prayers up. Hug your loved ones." Parks and Recreation co-star Nick Offerman told People: "The cast has been texting together about it all day and we're just heartbroken. Jonathan was such a sweet guy and we loved having him as our Chief Ken Hotate. A terrible tragedy." Tristan Kern de Gonzales said in his Facebook statement: "I was with him when he passed. I told him how much he was loved. To everyone who supported him, his fans, his friends, know that he valued you deeply. He saw you as family. My focus now is on protecting Jonathan's legacy and honoring the life we built together. If your concern is how someone coped with trauma or how loudly they speak when recounting injustice and being ignored by authorities then you never truly cared about my husband. Jonathan saved my life. I will carry that forward. I will protect what he built." What Happens Next An investigation into Joss' death is still ongoing.

Deadly Summer Heat: How Quickly Temperatures Rise Inside Vehicles
SAN ANGELO, Texas (Concho Valley Homepage) — As the Texas summer begins to scorch, health and safety officials are warning parents and caregivers about the life-threatening risk of leaving children inside hot vehicles — even for just a few minutes. In 2024, 39 children across the United States died from heatstroke after being left in hot cars. Three of those deaths occurred in Texas, data from the Texas Department of State Health Services shows. 'When it comes to children being left in vehicles, it's against the law to leave children younger than 7 years of age unattended in a vehicle unless they are accompanied by someone 14 years of age or older,' said Justin Baker with the Texas Department of Public Safety. 'Now the law on that is a Class C misdemeanor, and so again it can be punishable with a hefty fine — but more importantly, it's about saving that life.' Most hot car deaths are unintentional, often the result of a change in routine or a moment of forgetfulness, according to experts. 'It's important to make sure you give yourself reminders — check your vehicle before you get out, especially if you've changed your routine,' Baker said. 'That's when you really have to set those reminders.' A demonstration in San Angelo showed just how quickly temperatures can become deadly. With the outside temperature at 91 degrees, a parked vehicle was left for just 10 minutes with the windows slightly cracked. When checked again, the interior had already reached 100 degrees. Children are especially vulnerable in this kind of heat. Their bodies heat up three to five times faster than an adult's. Once a child's internal temperature hits 104°F, major organs begin shutting down. At 107°F, heatstroke can quickly become fatal. And while some incidents are caused by forgetfulness, others stem from the belief that a short errand will only take a minute. Officials say you should act immediately if you encounter a child or pet alone in a parked car and they appear to be in distress. 'So if you find yourself in that situation where you see a child or a pet unattended in a vehicle and it's obviously again very hot, it looks like they have been there awhile — one, call 9-1-1 immediately, we want to get some first responders en route,' Baker said. 'But two, you can take action in the Good Samaritan Law where you can break out a window if it comes down to saving the life of a human or a pet.' To help prevent hot car deaths, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) encourages the public to remember the acronym A-C-T: As the heat continues to rise across Texas in 2025, officials urge drivers to stay alert, build new habits, and never leave a child or pet unattended in a vehicle, not even for a minute.

‘Terrible Tragedy': Native American Actor Jonathan Joss, of King of the Hill and Parks and Recreation, Killed in Shooting at 59
Actor Jonathan Joss, best known for his portrayal of Native American characters in television and film, died at age 59 after being shot near his home in Texas on Sunday. Police were reportedly dispatched to a shooting in progress along Dorsey Drive in San Antonio at around 7 p.m. and, upon arrival, found a wounded Joss near the road. San Antonio police said in a statement that officers 'attempted life-saving measures' until the arrival of paramedics, who eventually pronounced Joss dead. Tristan Kern de Gonzales, Joss' husband after the pair married earlier this year on Valentine's Day, confirmed the actor's death to the Associated Press. De Gonzales posted a statement on Facebook after Joss' death, saying that the two were checking the mail at a former residence when the shooting happened. 'That home was burned down after over two years of threats from people in the area who repeatedly told us they would set it on fire,' the statement said. 'We reported these threats to law enforcement multiple times and nothing was done.' While living there, they regularly experienced 'openly homophobic' harassment, he claimed. Joss had told local news in January, after the 'house [he] grew up in' had been burned down while he and his partner were away, was 'vandalized.' In addition to damaging the property, the fire reportedly killed three of Joss' dogs. Joss' husband said in the statement after Joss' death that a man approached them while they were checking for mail at the former home and began yelling 'violent homophobic slurs' at them before raising a gun and firing. 'Jonathan and I had no weapons,' de Gonzales said. 'We were not threatening anyone. We were grieving. We were standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life.' 'He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other,' de Gonzales said. San Antonio police said in a statement: 'Despite online claims of this being a hate crime, currently the investigation has found no evidence to indicate that the Mr. Joss's murder was related to his sexual orientation.' The statement added: 'SAPD investigators handle these allegations very seriously and have thoroughly reviewed all available information. Should any new evidence come to light, the suspect will be charged accordingly,' Authorities arrested Sigfredo Ceja Alvarez, 56, and charged him with first-degree murder, according to county records. TMZ reported that Joss and his neighbor had experienced 'both verbal and physical fights in the past' and 'tensions between the two men had been building for years.' Joss began his acting career in 1994 with roles in episodes of Walker, Texas Ranger, as well as in movies like 8 Seconds, according to his IMDB page. In both the 1996 miniseries Dead Man's Walk and 2008 miniseries Comanche Moon, based on the Western novels by Larry McMurtry, Joss portrayed the character Kicking Wolf. Joss, who is of Apache and Comanche descent, said in 2008, 'I loved how Kicking Wolf wasn't your typical stoic Native American. He was allowed to smile and add some humor to the story.' Joss went on to play Ken Hotate, the comical and clever tribal leader of the fictional Wamapoke people, in five episodes of NBC sitcom Parks and Recreation between 2011 and 2015. 'He is so funny,' fellow show actor Aubrey Plaza told San Antonio local news in 2014. 'His relationship with Leslie Knope [Amy Poehler] is one of the funniest dynamics because of how weird their exchanges are. Jonathan is a really talented improviser. He's always making us crack up.' In a statement to People on Monday, Parks and Recreation co-star Nick Offerman said of Joss' death: 'The cast has been texting together about it all day and we're just heartbroken. Jonathan was such a sweet guy and we loved having him as our Chief Ken Hotate. A terrible tragedy.' Perhaps Joss' most famous acting credit was voicing the character John Redcorn in animated sitcom King of the Hill, which aired on Fox for 13 seasons from 1997 to 2009. He took over the role from Victor Aaron in the show's second season after Aaron died in a car accident. A reboot of King of the Hill is scheduled to premiere in August, and Joss had reportedly already begun recording lines for it. Just days before his death, Joss appeared at a panel about the reboot in Austin, Texas, on May 30, where he spoke from the audience after expressing disappointment on social media in April for not being invited to speak on the panel. 'This show was a part of my life for many years. That character, that voice, that story … they were my home, my pride, my connection to something bigger than myself,' Joss posted on Facebook on April 21. 'To not be invited felt like being shut out of a place I helped build.' In an update about a week later, he posted: 'I heard back from Disney, and while the King of the Hill panel will be focusing on series regulars, I truly appreciate them taking the time to reach out to me personally. It means a lot.' At the event on Friday, video on social media showed, Joss took to a microphone in the crowd and said: 'I'm an actor. I see a mic; I use it. I see a wrong; I make it right.' He went on to say, seemingly of his character and himself, 'For Johnny, he gave you guys a character because he is that character, he is that person.' Joss was reportedly escorted by security from the event. 'Jonathan Joss brought King of the Hill's 'John Redcorn' to life for over a dozen seasons, including in the upcoming revival,' Mike Judge, Greg Daniels, and Saladin Patterson said in a statement on Monday, according to Variety. 'His voice will be missed at 'King of the Hill,' and we extend our deepest condolences to Jonathan's friends and family.' While a GoFundMe drive set up by a fan to support Joss and his husband after the burning down of their home in January has begun to receive more donations since the news of Joss' death, a message posted to Joss' Facebook account seemingly from de Gonzalez said: 'There's not a need to donate to the gofundme. But I want everyone to remember the joy and love Jonathan has brought and will continue to bring forever. … Instead of donating Jonathan and I would both rather you spread the word about the consistent injustice done to him, to us, and to our dogs. We had so many beautiful plans for the future.'
