SAPD: 2 killed, 2 injured in targeted east-side shooting

No one has been taken into custody as of yet.

Two people were killed and two others were injured in what police say was a targeted shooting on San Antonio's east side Sunday night. 

One person was reported dead right after the shooting, while a second person died early Monday morning at a local hospital, the Bexar County Medical Examiner confirmed. 

The first victim has been identified as 17-year-old Xavier Esquivel. The second victim has not been identified, but police say they were 19-years-old.

The gunfire rang out in the area of Aransas Avenue and South Olive Street. The victims are all in their teen, SAPD Chief William McManus said. A motive is still being investigated, and McManus said it's not clear how many were in the suspect vehicle.

Homicide Detectives believe the unidentified suspects were driving a white Chevy Tahoe. The SUV has damage to its windows from the gunfire. Anyone with any information is encouraged to call the Homicide Unit at (210) 207-7635. 

"There's nothing I could say that would put any sense to it at all," McManus said.
