SAN ANTONIO – Two people were taken to an area hospital following a shooting at an apartment complex on the city’s North Side late Wednesday night, according to San Antonio police.
The shooting happened around 9:40 p.m. at an apartment complex in the 1000 block of Vance Jackson Road, not far from Fredericksburg Road and Interstate 10.
According to a preliminary report from police, a man was arguing with his girlfriend when his neighbor intervened and they got into an altercation.
The man who was arguing with his girlfriend pointed a gun at his neighbor who then walked back into this apartment, police said.
