SAN ANTONIO — A man was shot and killed in front of a home on the city's east side Wednesday night.

According to a sergeant with the San Antonio Police Department, a man in his 50s was shot multiple times in a front yard of a home in the 4000 block of Skelton. He was dead before authorities arrived at the scene.

Authorities said a suspect may have been shooting from in front of the home and towards the street at the victim. The home was not the victim's, and police are currently searching for the residents who live there.

The sergeant said investigators do not believe the victim, who was not identified Wednesday night, was armed, nor did he return fire in the incident. Several bullet casings were recovered in the yard.

SAPD provided more information Thursday morning stating a suspect was not found.
