A barricaded suspect shot and wounded four police officers who had responded to a residential call in San Antonio, TX. The shooting occurred at an apartment complex in the Stone Oak neighborhood of north San Antonio. Police told reporters that the incident unfolded when officers responded to a call from a family member of the suspect regarding a "suicide in progress." The four officers were hospitalized with what were believed to be non-life-threatening injuries. Stone Oak is considered "one of the most beautiful and beloved neighborhoods" of San Antonio, Texas.
In an average year, 4,122 people die and 7,726 are wounded by guns in Texas. Gun deaths and injuries cost the Lone Star State $51.3 billion each year, of which $1.1 billion is paid by taxpayers.
