A 19-year-old man was the subject of a drive-by shooting late Sunday night on the Northeast Side of San Antonio, as reported by the San Antonio Police Department. The incident, occurring at approximately 11:45 p.m. in front of an apartment complex on Pebbleshire, near Starcrest Drive, resulted in the man sustaining a gunshot wound to the abdomen. According to KSAT, the victim was ambulated to the hospital in stable condition after a white vehicle drove by him and opened fire without any provocation discernible.

Details on the vehicle and the suspects remain sparse, with the police not releasing additional vehicle indicators and no clear indication of the number of assailants. The shooters, still at large as of this report, had managed to flee the scene swiftly in the white vehicle after the shooting, leaving the community perturbed, as noted by a statement obtained by KSAT.

While the search for the perpetrator continues, no motives have been established, and witnesses have not stepped forward with substantial information. The San Antonio Police are urging anyone with knowledge regarding the drive-by to come forward, with a solemn reminder of the ever-looming presence of gun violence that shadows everyday moments with the threat of sudden terror.

In their report of the incident, KTSA News further remarked on the ongoing investigation. The police have yet to identify suspects or make any arrests. The victim, whose identity has not been disclosed, is recovering, and the local hospital reported his condition as stable.
