District mourns HCISD student

Less than a month after a student was killed in a car accident, the Hays High community is mourning the loss of a senior who passed away over the weekend.

Xavier Jacaman, 17, died of a possible self-inflicted gunshot wound, said Dennis Gutierrez, Hays County Sheriff’s Office public information officer, in an emailed response.

HCSO officials have not released any further details on Jacaman’s death, which is still under investigation. However, authorities are not calling the death suspicious at this time.
