The 59-year-old actor, best known as the voice of John Redcorn in the hit animated series, died Sunday, police said.

HOUSTON (AP) — Investigators are looking into whether the sexual orientation of “King of the Hill” voice actor Jonathan Joss played a role in his shooting death in Texas, authorities said Thursday, walking back a previous statement about the potential motive.

Jonathan Joss, who acted in “King of the Hill” and “Parks and Recreation,” was shot in San Antonio by a man who yelled “homophobic slurs” at him, his husband said.
