San Antonio police rushed to the city’s Southwest Side on Tuesday evening after a reported shooting in a residential stretch off Old Pearsall Drive.
Officers were called to the area around 6:26 p.m., with the initial call placing the incident in the 9100 block of Excellence Drive near Old Pearsall Drive. Police remained on scene into the evening as they worked the case.
According to KABB, emergency crews were sent to the location and the situation was described as developing. As of that report, officials had not released any information about possible victims or suspects, and details on what led up to the shooting were still unclear. KABB noted it would update its coverage as more information came in.
Nearby incidents and local context
The block around Excellence Drive is no stranger to trouble this year. In April, a parking-lot shooting tied to an in-person sale at a nearby apartment complex turned a routine meetup into chaos. That earlier case is chronicled in Hoodline as the “Southwest Side jewelry deal” and serves as a reminder that seemingly everyday transactions can escalate quickly.
How to help investigators
The San Antonio Police Department had not released additional details about Tuesday’s shooting at the time of reporting.
The City of San Antonio lists SAPD’s non-emergency number as 210-207-7273 for tips; call 911 in an emergency.
This remains a developing story and Hoodline will update this report as official statements, police records or additional reporting become available. If you were in the area and have video or information, investigators want to hear from you through the department’s tip lines.
