The incident happened around 12:15 p.m. at an apartment complex in the 3800 block of Parkdale, according to San Antonio Police Chief William McManus.
McManus said an officer was handling a traffic accident across the street from the complex when he heard gunshots ring out. The officer then went over to the complex to investigate.
That’s when he found two people, a man and a woman in their 40s or 50s, dead outside of a first-floor apartment, according to SAPD.
He also noticed a man, Michael Burger, 20, holding an AR rifle and a shotgun, McManus said. Burger took cover between two vehicles, causing the officer to back up.
