Meteorologist Elliot Wilson is no longer on the air at KSAT after his arrest on a family-violence charge, according to local reporting and law enforcement. Bexar County Sheriff’s deputies say the alleged incident occurred while Wilson was driving a woman to a medical appointment on Loop 410. The woman was later taken to a hospital, where she was diagnosed with a broken nose. Deputies arrested Wilson the same day and charged him with assault - bodily injury to a family member. The case remains under investigation.
KSAT, sheriff's office release initial details
According to KSAT, deputies were dispatched to a home after the woman reported being struck earlier in the day while she and Wilson were in a vehicle on Loop 410. The station’s story, later updated to reflect that Wilson is “no longer employed” at KSAT, states that hospital staff confirmed the broken nose and that deputies arrested him that same day. KSAT reports that the charge is listed as “assault - bodily injury to a family member” and notes that investigators are still working the case.
Local coverage and personnel status
San Antonio Current recapped the TV station’s coverage and pointed out that KSAT did not clarify whether Wilson resigned or was terminated when his employment ended. San Antonio Current also reported that Wilson joined KSAT late last year and previously worked in Texas and Oklahoma, including a stint in Waco.
Wilson's on-air background
KSAT introduced Wilson to viewers in December, saying he arrived in San Antonio after on-air roles in Waco and Oklahoma City and years spent chasing storms and forecasting severe weather. KSAT's profile noted that he graduated from Ball State University and joined the station’s Weather Authority team at the end of 2025.
Next steps and community questions
Officials have not announced a schedule for any court appearances, and reporters say the investigation is still open. San Antonio Current reports that the sheriff’s office supplied the core details included in local coverage and notes that additional information could surface as the case moves forward.
