Bexar County Goverment: Grand Jury Indicts Universal City Man For July Fatal Shooting

Press release from the Bexar County Government:

September 24, 2021

This week, Bexar County Grand Juries handed down 234 felony indictments.

Kiet Tuan Nguyen (SID: 1150197) is charged with murder. The indictment alleges that on July 5, 2021, Nguyen intentionally and knowingly caused the death of Ryan Vo by shooting Vo with a deadly weapon (firearm). A separate indictment charges Nguyen with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. It alleges that on July 5, 2021, Nguyen used and exhibited a deadly weapon (firearm) and that he intentionally, knowingly and recklessly caused bodily injury to Stacey Nguyen by striking her with a firearm. These cases are being prosecuted by the Family Violence Division in the 226th District Court. Murder is a first degree felony punishable by 5 to 99 years or life in prison and a possible fine of up to $10,000.

An indictment is not a finding of guilt. A person charged by indictment is presumed innocent until found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt by a jury or a judge. Because these and potentially other cases are either pending or may be under investigation, we can make no further comment on them.

Copies of indictments may be requested from the Bexar County District Clerk. Information on court settings can be found by searching the case online or directly from the court.
