SAPD: Man charged in pregnant teen's shooting death fathered unborn child who died and toddler

Armando Garcia-Ramires, 35, faces two counts of capital murder. He was booked into the Bexar County jail
on a $2 million bond.

The 35-year-old man accused of fatally shooting a pregnant teen was also the father of the unborn child, who later died, as well as a 1-year-old son who was unharmed, San Antonio police said Tuesday.
According to police, Armando Garcia-Ramires, who is currently in jail on a $2 million bond, lived near the 15-year-old victim, Jennifer Delgado, who was nine months pregnant.


It is unclear what motivated Garcia-Ramires to kill Delgado around 11 a.m. Monday at an apartment complex in the 1100 block of Babcock Road, but police say an unidentified woman recently discovered he was the father of both of children.

Police say the same woman first notified police that Garcia-Ramires attempted to kill himself in a wooded area near the apartment where he killed Delgado.
When officers arrived to the wooded area to investigate, they found Garcia-Ramires with a handgun, but he tossed it away when he was confronted by police because it was empty.

Police later discovered he had shot himself one time through the mouth with a .22-caliber handgun, apparently in an effort to kill himself.
Upon further interviews with the unidentified woman who informed them of Garcia-Ramires's relationship to Delgado, officers went to Delgado's apartment.

They found the front door kicked in. Inside, officers located Delgado's body. She had been shot in the head multiple times and was declared dead at the scene. Her body was taken to University Hospital in an unsuccessful effort to save her unborn child.


Police also found the 1-year-old son in the apartment .
Garcia-Ramires was transported to University Hospital. He was later booked into the Bexar County Jail on two capital murder charges after he was released from the hospital.
