Three people were injured in a shootout at a local trailer park in which a man was shot over a civili dispute when trying to escape into his trailer home. 18 year-old James Cruz is in an San Antonio hospital after being shot in the back by one of two assailants. Those who have been charged with assault with a deadly weapon are Roberto Ruiz, 57 and Adrian Torres, 23 who have since been apprehended. According to reports, the three men had been involved in a civil dispute involving the slashing of each other's tires for some time. Unfortunately this dispute escalated into a confrontation involving firearms. What is worse, a Carrizo Springs woman was shot by a stray bullet while seemingly in the comfort of her own home. The case remains under investigation by the Texas Rangers.
