Parks and Recreation star Chris Pratt paid tribute to fellow co-star Jonathan Joss after he was shot dead by a neighbour. The San Antonio Police Department in Texas as well as onlookers claimed the 59-year-old King of the Hill actor got into a heated row with a neighbour on the city’s south side over the weekend before he was shot.
Law enforcement told TMZ that the neighbour pulled out a gun during the argument and shot Joss several times before fleeing in a car, with the police arresting him a block away from the residence. A man called Sigfredo Alvarez-Cega was arrested and charged with murder for the horrific shooting.

“Damn. RIP Jonathan. Always such a kind dude. He played Ken Hotate in Parks and was also in Mag 7. Said to see. Prayers up. Hug your loved ones,” he captioned the post.
Fans also paid tribute to the actor, with one writing on social media: “This is absolutely devastating news. Jonathan Joss was such a talented actor, and his iconic roles brought so much joy to so many. What a tragic loss.”
Another devastated fan commented: “It absolutely shatters my heart to learn of the passing of Jonathan Joss, known and loved by many fans as the voice, heart, spirit, and soul of the character John Redcorn.
“He made a point to be involved in the fandom, and was so kind to all of us. He will never be forgotten!”
Joss’ husband, Tristan Kern de Gonzales, released a statement on the actor’s official Facebook page claiming the argument began when the couple were checking the mail “at the site of our former home”.
“When the man fired, Jonathan pushed me out of the way,” he said. “He saved my life. Jonathan is my husband. He gave me more love in our time together than most people ever get. We were newlyweds.
“We picked Valentine’s Day. We were in the process of looking for a trailer and planning our future,” Gonzales posted before adding he was with Joss when he passed and ‘told him how much he was loved.’
