SAN ANTONIO – Three people are in the hospital and four people have been detained following a shooting on the city’s Southeast Side early Thursday morning, according to San Antonio police.
Officers were called around 2:40 a.m. to a home near the intersection of Piedmont Avenue and Vanderbilt Street, not far from Steves Avenue and Interstate 37, after receiving word of a shooting.
According to police, officers had responded to Piedmont Avenue when a shooting occurred in the backyard of a home. That’s when, police say, a teenager found officers with a gunshot wound to the arm and told police that two other people were also wounded in the backyard of a home.
Police said emergency crews arrived and found the victims both with apparent gunshot wounds. All three victims, including the teenager, were taken by ambulance to an area hospital, with non-life-threatening injuries.
SAPD said they detained four people as a result of a shooting. They did not say what, if any charges are expected to be filed. It is also unclear as to exactly what led up to the shooting.
The San Antonio Police Department, the San Antonio Fire Department and EMS all responded to the call.
The investigation is ongoing, police said.
