The Texas Rangers are investigating a police shooting that left one suspect in critical condition after authorities say he failed to comply with commands, according to a press release.
At about 2:40 a.m. on Monday, Alamo police responded to a disturbance in the 300 block of East Crockett Avenue. Once there, police saw the suspect attempting to flee the scene, according to the release.
“The primary officer on the scene issued several verbal commands instructing the suspect to turn off his vehicle and exit,” the release said. “After multiple attempts to gain compliance, the suspect instead directed his vehicle toward the officer.”
The suspect drove toward the officer who then shot him, according to the release.
EMS arrived at the scene and transported the suspect to receive medical treatment.
No other information was immediately released.
