San Antonio Residents on Edge After Recent Road Rage Incidents
In San Antonio, a city known for its vibrant culture and warmth, concerns are rising as a series of alarming road rage incidents mar the streets. Just recently, the authorities in far South Bexar County are on the hunt for a suspect connected to a shocking road rage shooting incident that left one person injured.
The unsettling event unfolded along Highway 90 at Martinez-Losoya Road. It all began with a typical day on the road, but things quickly escalated. After a heated exchange, one driver suddenly lost control and crashed his vehicle. In a twist of fate, the other driver exited his car and opened fire, striking the man who had crashed before making a swift getaway.
Who’s the Suspect?
The suspect involved in this startling incident is described as a man in his 50s, sporting a mustache and goatee. Witnesses reported that he was behind the wheel of a newer model Hyundai Palisade. Now, the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office is pleading for anyone with information to step forward. They can call (210)-335-6000 or send an email to BCSOTIPS@bexar.org, and rest assured, any tips can be submitted anonymously.
Another Tragic Incident
This confrontation, much like the earlier one, stemmed from a verbal altercation that escalated dramatically. Reports indicate that Morales stopped his vehicle, opened his trunk, and showed off a firearm. In a shocking turn of events, the other man, aged 46, responded by firing at Morales multiple times, leading to this heartbreaking tragedy.
Details of the Investigation
Fortunately, the driver who shot Morales was detained without injuries and is reportedly cooperating with the investigation. Authorities are currently exploring whether this incident can be classified as self-defense. With two significant road rage events happening so closely together, local law enforcement is working diligently to piece together the facts and determine the next steps.

As these stories unfold, it is crucial for drivers to remain calm and collected while on the road. Road rage seems to be a growing concern, and the community’s safety relies on all of us choosing patience over aggression. Whether it’s on highways or quiet side streets, it’s essential to remember—there’s no problem that can’t be solved without resorting to violence.
