The Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office has identified a man shot to death on the South Side

SAN ANTONIO – Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office A man who was shot to death has been identified Sunday near a South Side business.

Ricardo Ortiz, 30, died from multiple gunshot wounds, the office said. His death was ruled a homicide.

SAPD officers were dispatched to an after-hours job in the 3100 block of Mission Road just before 3 a.m. Sunday.

When officers and other first responders arrived on scene, they said they found Ortiz in a vehicle with at least one gunshot wound.

A SAPD Sergeant at the scene told KSAT that two people were hanging out at the address where Ortiz was reported to be causing a disturbance in the parking lot.

According to SAPD’s initial investigation, Ortiz threatened to shoot people in the area and attempted to run over others with his vehicles.

The shooter, who told police he pulled out his gun and shot Ortiz in self-defense, remained at the scene when officers arrived.

SAPD took the shooter into custody, but no charges have been filed against the shooter at this time.

Police also said charges against the shooter may follow as the investigation continues.
