Austin police believe Skare and her boyfriend set up a drug deal that ended in a homicide. Skare was charged with aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon and was out on bond when Derouen was shot and killed this week. Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to contact the San Antonio Police Department.
