A former San Antonio police officer who shot an unarmed teenager while he was eating a hamburger in a McDonald’s parking lot earlier this month has been arrested and charged with two felony counts of aggravated assault.
James Brennand turned himself in to police Tuesday evening, San Antonio Police Chief William McManus told reporters at a news conference. The 17-year-old, Erik Cantu, was seriously wounded in the incident and remains in hospital, in a “critical but stable condition,” McManus said.
Brennand couldn’t be reached for comment Tuesday night. It was unclear whether he has appointed an attorney. McManus was asked Tuesday whether investigators had considered filing attempted murder charges against the former officer.
