Conflict started on dance floor leads to shooting outside West Side bar, police say

Both victims grazed by bullets

SAN ANTONIO – A conflict that apparently started on the dance floor of a West Side bar has led to the shootings of two men.

San Antonio police say both victims were grazed by bullets early Monday outside El Patio bar, located in the 1000 block of Frio City Road.

Police say the two victims had been dancing with two women inside the bar and that upset two other men, who it seems had ties to the women.

At some point later, a fight broke out in the parking lot.

Police say one of the jealous men pulled out a gun and fired at the victims shortly before 2 a.m.

One man, who is in his 30s, was grazed on his arm.

The other, who is in his 20s, was grazed on the head, then taken to a hospital as a precaution.

Police did not make any arrests.

They say the victims already were gone when officers arrived.
