Police were called around 4:30 a.m. Tuesday to the 1900 block of SE Military Drive, just west of South Presa Street, after an officer saw and heard a man firing gunshots into the air. The officer was concerned about the shooting so he did not go after the burglar who fled along the San Antonio River, police said. SAPD said they detained and handcuffed the car lot employee but he was released and will not be charged. Authorities want to stress that is never a good idea to fire gunshots in an attempt to get an officer’s attention.
