Additional toxicology ordered in Redus case (University of Incarnate Ward slain by police officer)
SAN ANTONIO -- An additional toxicology report was ordered for Cameron Redus, the UIW student who was shot and killed outside his apartment by a campus police officer.
Redus, 23, was shot five times at close range by Cpl. Christopher Carter with the University of Incarnate Word Police Department, following a traffic stop a few blocks north of campus on Dec.6.
The toxicology was sent to NMS Labs in Pennsylvania for testing for Psilocin and synthetic cannabinoids. Both substances are known for their mind-altering effects. The first can be found in drugs such as "magic" or "psychedelic" mushrooms.
Redus' blood tested negative for both substances. The test was conducted on July 7. The original toxicology from the Bexar County Medical Examiner was deemed completed on Jan. 9.
