SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio police said it is searching for a man accused of stabbing his brother-in-law with a knife multiple times.

Officers responded to a home just after 2:15 a.m. Saturday in the 2800 block of Observation Drive.

According to SAPD’s initial investigation, the victim had been drinking with his brother-in-law in the home’s backyard. The victim said that he didn’t want to drink anymore, which enraged his brother-in-law.

No other injuries were reported. SAPD’s investigation remains ongoing.
