The “King of the Hill” voice actor who was shot and killed, allegedly by his neighbor, had a bitter feud with the man for several years … and it had nothing to do with homophobia, neighbors say.
Here’s the deal … hours after TMZ broke the news Jonathan Joss had been killed Sunday during an altercation on his San Antonio property … the actor’s husband, Tristan Kern de Gonzales, said on Facebook the shooting was a hate crime — as homophobic slurs were allegedly hurled by the suspect at the scene.
However, neighbors tell TMZ … they did NOT hear anything homophobic said in the moment of the intense fight, and they say Joss and suspect Sigfredo Alvarez Ceja have been locked in a bitter feud for years — neighbors blaming Joss’ “antics” for disturbing an otherwise quiet, peaceful block.

We’re told those antics included Joss flying into random, angry rants … and yelling abusive language at anyone in the area. He also did bizarre things … like bang pots and pans on his roof at night.
Neighbors, we’re told, perceived these episodes of rage as a mental breakdown … and they told us that Joss, on more than one occasion, would apologize the next day after a meltdown.
The information we were given seems to track with what law enforcement has been told about the situation … San Antonio Police on Tuesday said thus far, they have found no evidence the shooting was a hate crime.
Ceja was arrested on suspicion of murder and was held in custody on a $200K bond. He confessed to the crime right after the attack, according to a police report.
