A man is fighting for his life in a San Antonio hospital after he was shot in his Northeast Side apartment on Thursday night. The shooting occurred at the Republic at Alamo Heights Apartments, situated at 1100 Austin Highway, as stated by the San Antonio Police Department to KSAT.
The incident unfolded just after 9:00 p.m., with emergency crews arriving on the scene to discover a man, believed to be 30 years old, with a severe leg wound, evidenced by bleeding from an artery. Despite the urgency of care taken to SAMMC, the man's condition is described as critical, according to KSAT.
Police reports indicate that two men were in the apartment at the time of the shooting, both of whom left the scene hurriedly before the officers arrived, leaving clues sparse. The wounded man's reluctance to provide information has compounded the situation, making the investigation challenging, as FOX San Antonio reports.
Authorities have yet to know the motive behind the shooting, while the relationship between the victim and the alleged shooters remains nebulous. The SAPD continues its investigation into this matter, and they are calling for any witnesses or individuals with pertinent information to step forward.
