The injured teenager was brought to University Hospital in critical condition, according to MySA.
A San Antonio police officer who shot and wounded a teenager Sunday in a McDonald's parking lot has been fired after newly released body-cam footage appeared to contradict the cop's initial report,SAPD rookie James Brennand initially said he fired his weapon after the teen suspect struck him with his vehicle, according to police reports obtained by MySA. However, body-cam footage posted by the department appears the teen, who's recovering in hospital, never struck the officer.
Brennand initially said in an incident report that he fired at the vehicle after he was struck by the driver who was trying to evade capture, the news site reports. However, raw body cam footage released by SAPD on Wednesday appears to contradict those claims. As seen in the footage, the rookie officer approaches the car and opens the driver's side door, where he finds a teenager eating a burger. Brennand orders the youth out of the vehicle. The teenager puts his hands on the steering wheel and responds to the officer's request by asking,"Why?" A scuffle then ensues.
The teen driver, whose identity hasn't been made public, puts his vehicle in reverse while the officer shoots five times. Brennand then radios"shots fired" before shooting at the car another five times.The vehicle and its driver were later found down the road, and the victim was taken to University Hospital in critical condition, MySA reports.
