The man was shot after he tried stabbing another man, according to police.
SAN ANTONIO — A driver called 911 early Sunday morning reporting a man lying in a pool of blood on a southside road, according to San Antonio Police.
Officers were called out to the intersection of E. Franciscan and Probandt St. just after 5:00 a.m. on Sunday and found the victim who they said had been shot twice.
Investigators said officers couldn’t find a crime scene, expanded their search of the area, and located where the shooting happened off the 400 blk. of W. Glenn Ave.
According to police, the man who lives at the home got into an argument with another man.
The homeowner told officers during the heated argument, the other man allegedly tried to stab him, and the victim got a gun and fired off two shots.
The suspect was hit twice and stumbled off down the street, police said.
Investigators said they recovered the gun nearby.
The 40-year-old suspect is facing one charge of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon.
Witnesses were detained for questioning, and it’s still unclear if the 46-year-old homeowner, who allegedly shot the suspect, will be facing any charges.
The names of the homeowner and suspect have not been released.
San Antonio Police said the investigation is still ongoing.
