Hernandez’s body had signs of trauma and she was pronounced dead. Her death was ruled a homicide by the Bexar County Medical Examiner. Authorities said she had been strangled.
According to police, she went for a walk with a neighbor on Tuesday evening but when he returned a few hours later, she wasn’t with him.
The man she was with, who is said to be a neighborhood friend, was detained for questioning.
SAPD released an image of a different “person of interest” on their Facebook page, but it was later taken down.
