SAN ANTONIO – An 18-year-old man was killed and five others, including two children, were injured in a shooting on the East Side, according to the San Antonio Police Department.
Police said the shooting was reported around 10:45 p.m. on July 4 at an apartment complex in the 1700 block of Lamar Street, near North Mittman Street.
Upon arrival, SAPD said its officers found multiple people with apparent gunshot wounds outside the complex.
According to a preliminary report, officers were told several people walking near the area began firing at a residence, striking multiple individuals both inside and outside the building.
In a Facebook post, police initially said three people were walking when they shot a gun toward the complex.
The man, later identified as Cory Goode, was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The Bexar County Medical Examiner’s office ruled Goode’s death a homicide.
Among the five others wounded were two girls, ages 5 and 12, an unknown person, a 41-year-old woman and a 22-year-old man. All were taken to local hospitals in “critical but stable condition,” police said.
SAPD’s Facebook post stated one of those shot was a suspect, though the preliminary report does not confirm that detail.
Several individuals were detained for questioning, the report states, but no arrests have been made in connection with the shooting.
It is unknown what led up to the shooting. The investigation is ongoing.
