SAN ANTONIO — The San Antonio Police Department is on the scene of a fatal shooting near a northwest-side apartment complex.
At around 2:50 p.m., officials responded to two locations in the 1700 block of Babcock Road and 1500 block of Mardell Street, for reports of gunfire in the area. SAPD said they received calls from people reporting they heard around 12 to 15 shots ring out on Mardell Street.
At this point, authorities said the interaction started as a meetup for an OfferUp transaction before “something happened and they both started shooting at each other.” A woman who was with victim drove him away from the area before he died from his injuries; authorities believe he was about 28 years old.
It’s unclear at this point, however, if the person who died started the violence or if there’s another suspect who left the area.
This is a developing story.
