According to police, neighbors witnessed a dark colored sport utility vehicle pull up to the home just before someone inside fired multiple shots.

The man wounded was inside the home and was shot four times, police said. The 24-year-old man was taken to San Antonio Military Medical Center with two gunshot wounds to his abdomen and one on each arm.

Officers upon inspection said they found both blood and a shell casing in the street. The investigation into the shooting is ongoing.
