A 22-year-old man in Texas has confessed to killing his uncle — an Independent School District police dispatcher who, with the man’s aunt, raised him “as their own son” — because he felt “unwelcomed and unloved” by him, according to prosecutors.

Antonio Guzman, who is reported to be the nephew of victim Jose Torres’ wife, is accused of shooting the 37-year-old in the face multiple times at Torres’ home in the northwest Houston neighborhood of Spring Branch on Friday after meeting him alone there, according to Harris County prosecutors.
