'He would make sure everybody around him was taken care of.' Family and friends remember the 13-year-old who was fatally shot by a San Antonio police officer.

For those who loved Andre Hernandez Jr., fondly called AJ, it was his inviting smile and fiercely protective nature that resonate in the weeks following his fatal shooting.“He was always so affectionate and loving,” Lynda Espinoza said. “He would always put his arm around me and tell me he loves me.

“Even at 13, he would talk about having his own family and about how he would be a good dad,” she said. In early April, Andre was arrested in a smuggling case in a nearby county after police chased him and another juvenile in their vehicle, according to local CBS affiliate, which said it had obtained an affidavit of the arrest. Authorities said seven undocumented migrants were found lying down in the car, the outlet reported. NBC News has not verified the details of the news station’s account.

“I'm not painting him to be an angel, he made mistakes but that didn’t mean his life should have ended for it.”The following month, the family was dealt another blow. Andre’s mother also confirmed “a little breakdown” in the beginning after his father left but said he had become better with the help of a mentor at school.
