SAN ANTONIO — The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office is investigating after multiple homes and vehicles were struck by gunfire during an apparent exchange of shots between moving vehicles on the west side of San Antonio Tuesday night.

When deputies arrived, they found several homes and parked vehicles damaged by gunfire. No victims or active threats were located at the scene, but investigators recovered multiple spent shell casings.
A short time later, dispatchers learned a man with a gunshot wound to his lower body had arrived at a nearby urgent care clinic. He was later taken to a local hospital, and officials said his injuries do not appear to be life-threatening.
Investigators believe there was an exchange of gunfire between two, and possibly three, vehicles traveling through the neighborhood.
Two people have been detained, a 17-year-old male and an 18-year-old woman Aniya Brenae West., after deputies say they were the last known occupants of the vehicle at a residence nearby. BCSO said contradictory statements were provided, and a firearm was recovered from the residence.
West was arrested for tamper/fabricate physical evidence with intent to impair. Officials said no other information about the juvenile’s involvement will be released at this time.
Authorities say it remains unclear who may be victims, suspects or witnesses as the investigation continues.
Officials also noted that while there is a park nearby, it does not appear to be connected to the shooting. Video from the pickleball court at the park shows alarmed players running for cover at the sound of the shots,
