A barricaded suspect shot and wounded four police officers Wednesday night who had responded to a residential call in San Antonio, Texas, officials said. The shooting occurred at an apartment complex in the Stone Oak neighborhood of north San Antonio.
San Antonio Police Chief William McManus told reporters that the incident unfolded when officers responded to a call from a family member of the suspect regarding a "suicide in progress."
The four officers were hospitalized with what were believed to be non-life-threatening injuries, McManus said.
As of late Wednesday night, the suspect, described as a man in his 40s, remained barricaded inside an apartment. Some surrounding units had been evacuated. The exact circumstances that led up to the shooting were still unclear. McManus did not say if the officers returned fire.
