8 people shot outside san antonio bar; police searching for shooter

San Antonio-Eight people were shot outside of a San Antonio bar Friday night, and police are on the hunt for the shooter.

The inside happened around 11:30 p.m., in the parking lot of a Rebar, a bar located in the 8000 block of Broadway.

According to San Antonio Police Chief William McManus, “They are all in stable condition, the most serious was someone was hit in the back.” McManus said six of the victims self-transported to hospitals. Two people were grazed and refused treatment.

Police say a group of five people, two males and three females were denied entry into a San Antonio bar because they were intoxicated.

The shooter said to the staff, “Don’t you know who I am? I’m a UFC fighter from California. After being denied entry, McManus said he, “walked back to his car, pulled out a long rifle and walked back across the street and opened fire.”

During a press conference, McManus said the victims include five females and three males. The identity of the victims has not been made public.

If anyone has any information, they are urged to call police.
