A man with apparent connections to Alaska was a suspect in a San Antonio, Texas homicide case that also caused an AMBER Alert Sunday morning. The Guadalupe County Sheriff's Office says the suspect died Sunday evening from injuries sustained from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

According to

, the ABC affiliate in San Antonio, police were dispatched to the “the 10400 block of Arbor Bluff around 8 a.m. for assistance in a child exchange, while en route to the home, another call came out for shots fired.” Police discovered the mother of an 18-month-old child had been fatally shot near the doorway of the home, according to media reports.

Police

for help locating 37-year-old Richard Concepcion. According to the notification, he was last seen at 10428 Arbor Bluff in San Antonio. The address matches Concepcion’s last known address, according to public records reviewed by KTUU.

Concepcion was believed to have driven away with the toddler in a white Toyota Tundra. San Antonio Police described the truck on social media as having an Alaska sticker, a flag with a snake decal and a specialty "bronze star" plate.

A public records search shows Concepcion lived in Alaska, Texas, Arizona, and North Carolina. Public records indicate a social security card was issued to Concepcion in Alaska between 1984 and 1985. He would have been a young child at the time.

San Antonio Police Chief William McManus told KSAT Concepcion spent some time in the military, but the Police Chief was reportedly unsure whether Concepcion was active duty.

Shortly before noon, Police announced Concepcion had been located with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The post also said the child had been located safely in the backseat of the truck.
