(People) – Jonathan Joss, the voice actor best known as John Redcorn from “King of the Hill,” was killed in a San Antonio shooting on Sunday, police said.
A suspect, 56-year-old Sigfredo Alvarez Ceja, was taken into custody and booked on a murder charge, the San Antonio Police Department said.
Officers were dispatched to Dorsey Drive around 7 p.m. Sunday for a shooting and arrived to find the actor, whose legal name is Jonathan Joss Gonzales, near the roadway after he was shot, police said.
Authorities attempted life-saving measures until EMS arrived and pronounced Joss, 59, dead.
Joss was the voice of John Redcorn in the Fox animated series from seasons 2 through 13. John Redcorn was a “New Age healer” and masseur, who was always addressed by his full name or “Mr. Redcorn.”
A new season of “King of the Hill” revival is set to debut on Hulu in August. In a credit sequence shared Friday, John Redcorn is seen driving by in his classic tan Jeep.
