According to police, officers responded to multiple calls of gunshots at The Lodge Apartments around 9:13 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov 24. When officers arrived they found a person who had been shot in the chest and immediately began lifesaving efforts. Hays County EMS and San Marcos Fire Department also responded but lifesaving efforts were not successful and the victim, later identified as Winters, died at the scene.
Winters was a member of the Texas State University football team and the team's coach Jake Spavital released a statement saying, "Our Texas State University football team is deeply saddened by the death of our team member, and friend, Khambrail Winters."

San Marcos Police Department detectives say through interviews with people involved and with witnesses that they determined that Winters and two other people, Blackman and Ifeanacho, had planned to buy drugs. Detectives say the deal was set up at the apartment complex where Blackman met two people to buy a couple of ounces of marijuana. It was during the deal that Winters was shot.
Police were looking in November for a fourth person involved who has not yet been identified. Anyone with information or surveillance video is asked to contact Detective Templeton at 512-753-2317 or btempleton@sanmarcostx.gov.
