SAN ANTONIO — Police are searching for a black SUV following the fatal shooting of a young man Thursday night on the city’s East Side.

Officers responded to the 4800 block of Lord Road at approximately 7:50 p.m. after receiving multiple calls reporting gunfire. Upon arrival, they discovered a Hispanic male, estimated to be in his late teens or early 20s, with fatal gunshot wounds in a breezeway.

While investigators said there were no direct witnesses to the shooting itself, several people reported seeing a black SUV fleeing the area. Police have not yet identified the make or model of the vehicle.

Detectives are canvassing the apartment complex for evidence, though they noted that no footage from balcony cameras has been recovered so far.
