59-year-old actor Jonathan Joss, famous for his roles in “King of the Hill” and “Parks and Recreation,” tragically lost his life due to gun violence on June 1, according to the San Antonio Police Department. Vulture confirmed the news. His husband is among those who survive him. A suspect, Sigfredo Alvarez Ceja, has been arrested and charged with murder. The exact cause of their disagreement remains unknown, but sources like TMZ report that they were seen arguing prior to the incident. It’s said that Ceja drew a gun and fired at Joss before fleeing. Authorities were summoned shortly after 7 p.m., and Ceja was apprehended near his residence. Officers tried to revive Joss, but he was declared dead upon the arrival of emergency services. Ceja’s bail is currently set at $200,000, according to TMZ. The case remains under investigation.
Born and raised in San Antonio, Joss – who is of Comanche and White Mountain Apache descent as reported by The Guardian – gained recognition for voicing John Redcorn on seasons 2 through 13 of “King of the Hill”. Following the unfortunate demise of the original voice actor, Victor Aaron, in a car accident after the first season in 1996, Joss stepped into the role. Additionally, he played recurring character Chief Ken Hotate on “Parks and Recreation”. In January 2025, a fire claimed his San Antonio home and two dogs as reported by KSAT 12 local news. At that time, he shared his struggles, saying, “I don’t have a job, I don’t have children, I don’t have a place to stay.” Two days before a shooting incident, Joss unexpectedly attended a “King of the Hill” cast reunion in Austin and conducted his final interview with a fan podcast.
