He told police that he had been hiding in his ex-girlfriend’s house after sneaking into the home, waiting to “surprise” her with flowers, money and cocaine.
A man has been accused of murder in the death of his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend, according to SAPD.
It happened early Sunday morning on October 26 in the 7300 block of Roveen Trail in Converse.
Police say that the victim and his girlfriend had just returned home around 2 a.m. She went upstairs to take a shower and that’s when she heard several gunshots, according to arrest paperwork. She told officers she saw Shiateek De-Shean Wilson, 23, standing in the doorway holding a weapon. The victim, Noel Miller, was found with a gunshot wound in an upstairs bedroom. He was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced deceased.
The girlfriend told officers that the suspect took her phone and told her “don’t call on me,” then fled on foot.
Wilson was arrested later Sunday at a friend’s house, about a mile away from the shooting scene. Wilson admitted to police he shot Miller, but said it was self-defense, according to the affidavit. He said that Miller pointed a weapon at him first.
He told officers that he had been hiding in his ex-girlfriend’s daughter’s closet after sneaking into the home, drinking, and waiting to “surprise” her with flowers, money, and cocaine. He claims that when he fled from the scene, he discarded the gun, flowers, and other items.
Multiple shell casings and bullet defects were found inside the home, according to the affidavit. A weapon was not found during the warrant search.
Wilson has been charged with murder, which is a felony.
