A 19-year-old man is dead and the people who shot him are still being sought after a reported road rage shooting early Sunday on San Antonio's South Side, according to the San Antonio Police Department as reported by KTSA. The shooting happened around 3:30 a.m. in the 200 block of Teresa. Police said someone inside a vehicle occupied by three males fired shots at the rear of another vehicle, striking the 19-year-old, who was riding in the front passenger seat of the vehicle that was hit.
The driver of the struck vehicle took the wounded teenager to a local hospital with an apparent gunshot wound, but he was pronounced dead, per the KTSA account of the police report. Officers had initially responded to a shooting call in the 500 block of Pleasanton Road and, while en route, learned the victim was being taken to a hospital; officers later found the vehicle at an emergency entrance on Cupples Road.
Police have not released suspect descriptions, and the victim's name has not been released in the account read this cycle — the station does not publish a victim's name until police release it officially. The case is being investigated as a murder and the investigation remains ongoing, per SAPD via KTSA. This story will be updated when police release more.
