McDonald's Shooting Charges Dropped | Austin News
Description
A McDonald’s parking lot shooting from 2022 has taken a dramatic turn: former officer James Brennand, who allegedly opened fire on teen Erik Cantu, now faces no charges after all accusations were dropped. Cantu, who was critically injured and spent months recovering, had initially been charged but those were dismissed. Brennand’s case, which once carried attempted murder charges, was reduced to aggravated assault — until now. His trial was imminent, but records show everything’s officially closed. The reason? Still under investigation. This case remains a chilling reminder of how quickly justice can shift — and why the truth is still unfolding.
