SAN ANTONIO — In west Bexar County, the occupants of two cars opened fire on one other, which prompted the neighbouring Brennan High School to go into lockdown for a short period of time. The authorities say they are investigating the incident.
Shortly after noon, sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to the 12000 block of Victorian Oaks. A tweet from the BCSO states that people in two vehicles in the region were firing at each other while they were doing so.
There is currently no information available regarding whether or not anyone was harmed or shot. A number of ambulances can be seen responding to the site in the video from the scene.
Officials from Northside ISD have stated that Brennan High School was momentarily placed under lockdown and that a command centre was created there by Bexar County deputies. A person of interest was held by deputies at a nearby residence; however, no charges have been brought forward at this time.
Just before two in the afternoon, the staff and kids at the school were given the all-clear to resume their regularly scheduled classes and activities.
Deputies from the BCSO were able to apprehend a suspect who was 17 years old just before 6 o’clock at his residence in the 13900 block of Laurel Branch, according to the BCSO. They were able to establish that the person of interest was Kaleb Allen Rackley, and they placed him under arrest for two counts of lethal conduct.
