SAN ANTONIO — A man suffered multiple stab wounds after a fight over a tent at a homeless camp on the west side of town early Tuesday morning.
San Antonio Police were dispatched to the 5600 block of Westward Drive near Pinn Road just before 3 a.m. for reports of someone stabbed.
Officers tell us that two guys got into a fight over a tent at a homeless camp on Colt Drive at U.S. Highway 90 West and one of them stabbed the other multiple times in his body and back. The victim, a man in his 50s, managed to ride off on a bike down Westward Drive to get help.
