SAN ANTONIO – A security guard was arrested after he shot a man who was causing a disturbance at an H-E-B convenience store, according to San Antonio police.
The shooting happened just before 7:30 p.m. on Monday at Zarzamora Road near Southwest Military Drive on the Southwest Side.
Two security guards arrived shortly after a man created a disturbance in the convenience store and bothered customers, according to a preliminary report from SAPD.
The guards confronted the man, 40, as he exited the store.
According to the report, the “guards tried to get the victim to comply with their commands and the victim refused.”
When the man walked toward one of the security guards, the guard shot him in the right leg, police said.
The man was taken to Brooke Army Medical Center and was in critical condition.
Police on Monday said they would review the security video to determine if any charges will be filed.
The preliminary report released on Tuesday states that the guard, 38, was later booked for aggravated assault.
His name was not released. The investigation is ongoing.
