SAN ANTONIO – A 6-year-old girl is dead, and a family member of the victim is in custody after officers arrived at a chaotic scene on the Southwest Side, according to San Antonio police.
The Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office has identified the child killed as Hosanna Sancho.
Police were called just after 3 p.m. Wednesday for a disturbance involving a child in the 13000 block of Watson Road at the Frontera Crossing apartment complex.
