SAPD: Parents were killed near 13-year-old daughter

SAN ANTONIO – Two people were killed and three others, including a 13-year-old girl, were injured when an argument at a house party ended in a shooting.

The shooting happened at 9:40 p.m. Saturday in the 300 block of Roslyn Avenue, near Gaynor Street on the West Side.

San Antonio police said before the shooting, there was an argument between a partygoer and a neighbor. That neighbor left but then returned with their family, police said.

At some point, he pulled out a gun and opened fire, hitting a 40-year-old man, a 35-year-old woman and their 13-year-old daughter, police said.

The 40-year-old man shot back and injured the suspect and his relative, police said.

The 40-year-old man and 35-year-old woman were pronounced dead at the scene, and their daughter was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The 20-year-old man and his relative were also taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
