Reyna’s remains were found on Oct. 22 at a field off U.S. Highway 90 at Pue Road, less than a mile inside Loop 1604.

According to Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar, the property owners were mowing the grass near a ditch when they saw an unidentified object. As they approached it, they realized it was a human skull.

The property owners go to the field yearly to cut the grass but did not see Reyna’s remains last year.

BCSO believes Reyna’s remains could have been at the property for a couple of years since his remains were bleached out.

Anyone with any information regarding Reyna’s death, contact BCSO at 210-335-6000.
