"18-Year-Old Arrested In 'Ninja' Shooting"

I guess the disguise didn't work.

SAN ANTONIO -- Investigators have arrested an 18-year-old man they said shot a 44-year-old man during a robbery attempt late Monday evening.

Jacob Cavazos was identified by the victim from his hospital bed, police said. Police took the suspect to Brooke Army Medical Center for the victim to make an identification. Investigators said the victim recognized the shooter's voice and eyes, but couldn't remember his name.

Bexar County Sheriff's deputies said the victim was sitting in the garage of a friend's home at 9:30 p.m. on the 8400 block of Tuxford Drive when a man dressed in black and wearing a ski mask -- witnesses said he looked "like a ninja," investigators said -- demanded keys to a car in the driveway.

When the victim refused, the man in black shot him once in the chest, deputies said.


(from KSAT-12)

Maybe he should have taken the bus instead.

Yup... I used to live 2 blocks away from Tuxford... when the neighborhood started to turn, we moved to another neighbordhood in the same zip code. Scary to think we could still be living there around chaos like that (the only time I ever attempt driving by the old house is during daylight hours)... although, there WAS a shooting a couple houses down from ours when I was in elementary school... but it was a stupid drunken accident. ;)
