Teen Shot in Fight Over Tater Tots

A teenager was shot Monday afternoon after he was arguing over tater tots with another teen, San Antonio Police said.

The shooting happened close to 5 p.m. at the Spring Hill Apartments off Raybon on the northeast side.

Neighbors told police the uncle of one of the boys told the teens to stop fighting. They were ready to stop, but investigators said a 20-year-old man would not let them.

“Another person out here in this apartment complex, I think wanted to see the young boys continue fighting,” Sgt. Rudy Cran with SAPD said.

The man then walked into a nearby apartment complex, grabbed a gun and started shooting, authorities said. He fired several shots into the living room where the boys were watching television, police said.

“One of those rounds from that 45 automatic, hit the young man in the back,” Cran said.

The boy was rushed to University Hospital, officials said. His condition was unavailable Monday night.

The suspect remained on the loose Monday. Police were looking for him.

Are you implying that tater tots aren't a good reason to shoot someone?

Guess he was actually having a "killer" time.

I can't possibly imagine how a serious tater tot argument would even go, let alone fathom that someone would die as a result of it.

He should have just used his sweet ninja skills to dodge the bullet.

I don't know why the tater tots are even mentioned. It's kind of irrelevant in an incident where some weirdo shoots at people when he wants them to fight. I think the reporter just is a big Napoleon Dynamite fan.
