San Antonio PD: Good Samaritan fatally shot outside Northwest Side Walmart
SAN ANTONIO A Good Samaritan trying to stop what appeared to be a domestic beating was shot and killed Friday afternoon in the parking lot of a Northwest Side Walmart in front of at least a dozen witnesses.
San Antonio Police Chief William McManus told media at the scene that a man had been assaulting his female companion in the Walmart parking lot at 1603 Vance Jackson Road and was pulling her hair when a witness stopped his vehicle, rolled down his window and shouted, Get your hands off her.
The suspect then drew a handgun and fired at the Good Samaritan, striking him in the neck and killing him, McManus said. A woman in the car with the Good Samaritan was struck by shrapnel and injured.
McManus said another woman who was farther away in the parking lot but not involved in the confrontation was struck by a stray bullet and was critically injured.
