In Wake of Downtown Incident, a Man Arrested for Murder

SAN ANGELO, TX — San Angelo police have closed a significant portion of Chadbourne Street this morning and draped the area with crime scene tape. According to witness reports, the commotion downtown happened at around 3 a.m. We heard there was a killing in front of a bar.

Chadbourne is blocked from Twohig to Beauregard as police conduct an extensive investigation. We saw a police investigator in the alleyway near the Fat Boss Bar

In the Tom Green County jail logs, a Ryan Renfroe, 33, was arrested for murder. He is currently held without bond. A fund raising page has already been published to aid in burial expenses of a shooting victim. The narrative of the fundraising page said the victim was, “brutally shot in the downtown streets of San Angelo.” We are not linking to the page because we cannot verify if the page is legitimate and police have not officially identified the victim. He was described as a 23-year-old white male.

We have talked to bar owners in the area and all confirmed there was a shooting. Police have not released any information as of 11:30 a.m. Renfroe was booked into the jail at 10:43 a.m.

On Chadbourne Street, at around 11:15 a.m., police called in Ladder 1 and the downtown fire department to “wash down the crime scene.”
