SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio police say they didn’t have to look for a suspect in connection with a shooting outside an East Side bar.

Officers say they also found the gun involved on the ground near the victim.
They say the two men had been arguing inside JD’s Sports Bar, then took their disagreement outdoors.
Witnesses told them the two began physically fighting just before one pulled out a gun and shot the other.
The 34-year-old victim suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was in critical condition as he was rushed to a hospital.
A preliminary police report did not specify which charges the suspect in this case will face, nor did it reveal the names of those involved.
