Woman killed after refusing to have kids with boyfriend: Cops

A San Antonio man allegedly shot and killed his girlfriend after she told him she did not want to have his baby, according to police. 

Adam Byrd, 23, has been charged with murder for gunning down his girlfriend, Jade Alyssa Alvarez, 22, just days after he robbed a store at gunpoint, according to local reports, which cited an arrest affidavit.

Alvarez’s dead body was found with multiple gunshot wounds on Capitol Avenue around 6:30 a.m. on April 6, according to KSAT.

A woman who had been with Alvarez the night before the shooting told police the victim had been dating Byrd.

He had been talking to Alvarez on the woman’s phone and asked for her to be dropped off on Capitol Avenue, where she was found dead hours later, KENS5 reported. 

Byrd at the time had an active Bexar County arrest warrant for two counts of aggravated robbery from the stickup earlier in the month. 

After being taken into custody this week and questioned about the robbery, Byrd admitted to police that he had killed Alvarez over an argument about how he wanted to have a child with her, but she did not. 

He also admitted to using the same gun to kill her as the one he used during the robbery, according to the affidavit.
