Apartment complex near UTSA evicts tenant after shooting incident, mother still distraught

The Reserve San Antonio, near UTSA, evicted a tenant after shots were fired but one mother is still worried about her daughter living there.

SAN ANTONIO — Multiple individuals walked out of an apartment unit and fired gunshots at The Reserve San Antonio during a party in October. 

Another person caught the incident on video. Parent DeYanna Brazile didn't see that video until last weekend. She couldn't believe it. 

"I was disturbed. I was distraught. I was like, oh my god, all this stuff is happening up in here? I was thinking you ( her daughter) were safe!" Brazile said. 

Brazile was already unhappy with The Reserve San Antonio after she and her daughter discovered someone had broken into her daughter's apartment last Sunday. Fortunately, her daughter wasn't home at the time. 

When KENS 5 reached out to The Reserve San Antonio Tuesday to ask for a response, management sent a statement that said someone had been evicted after the shooting incident. 

"We’re aware of the recent unfortunate events that have taken place on our property. Our main concern is the wellbeing of our residents, and while we cannot discuss details related to specific current or former residents’ occupancy status, what we can say is that these incidents are being investigated by SAPD, the offending resident has been evicted, and security patrols have been increased at the property," Asset Senior Regional Supervisor Whitney Owen said via email. 

Brazile said she would like to see cameras and 24/7 security.

An SAPD report said the shooting happened around 2 a.m. on October 14 while individuals were having "a large party" at the complex. 

The report states officers found multiple shell casings between the ground level and the third floor of the complex. 

At least 15 shots can be heard in a short 8-second video taken by a witness. 

No one was hit but the bullets did end up in apartment walls, a door, and a vehicle. 

Brazile said she has asked the apartment complex to let her daughter out of her current lease. She said many tenants at the complex are students and she wants them to know what is going on as well. 

"These kids are just running around as they please because they know there is no security there. Somebody is going to get hurt," Brazile said. "Maybe people will start talking once the video starts surfacing."
