Three San Antonio police officers were charged with murder on Friday less than 24 hours after they fatally shot a woman during a police call, the police chief announced.
Officer Eleazar Alejandro, 28; Sgt. Alfred Flores, 45; and Officer Nathaniel Villalobos, 27, are suspended from the force without pay as the investigation continues.
Edited and blurred body camera video released by the police department shows officers continuing to talk to Perez through a rear patio window, urging her to come out. But seconds later, McManus said, Perez “advanced toward the window again while still holding the hammer, and all three officers opened fire.”
