Man With Gun Refused Orders, Officers Shoot | San Antonio News
Description
A tense standoff unfolded Saturday night on Aurora Avenue when police responded to reports of a 69-year-old man waving a handgun. Despite multiple verbal commands, the man refused to drop the weapon, prompting officers to fire their weapons in self-defense. He was pronounced dead at the scene without firing his own gun — and no officers were injured. The five officers involved, ranging from several months to four years on duty, are now on administrative leave as an investigation begins. Neighbors witnessed the incident and will be interviewed; the deceased’s identity remains undisclosed.
