A San Antonio police officer is out of a job after shooting a teenager who was eating a meal in a car parked outside a McDonald’s … and the incident is all on video.
The shooting went down Sunday night at a Mickey D’s, but police just released bodycam footage showing the cop firing multiple shots into the car.
The officer walked up to a parked car, opened the driver’s door and the teen behind the wheel freaks out in between bites of a burger. The kid then reversed to drive away and the cop started shooting.
Several gunshots ring out as the car drives off into the night, with the officer giving chase.
As it turns out, San Antonio PD says the officer was at the fast food joint for a disturbance call unrelated to the vehicle from the shooting.
Cops say the officer approached the car because he thought it was the same vehicle that allegedly evaded police the day before.
The teen reportedly suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was taken to the hospital in critical condition. He was initially charged with evading detention and assault on a police officer but those charges have since been dismissed, and the case is closed.
Meanwhile, San Antonio PD terminated the cop for violating the department’s tactics, training and procedures.
