At least five people were wounded, including one critically, in a shooting at a flea market in San Antonio on Sunday, police officials said.
The gunfire erupted about 11:30 a.m. at Mission Market during a dispute on the grounds, according to Police Chief William McManus.
This is the result of some type of argument. I dont know if the argument was between gang members or just people who knew each other or didnt know each other, McManus said.
McManus said a security guard also opened fire, but it was not known if the guard is among the wounded.

YES, I know the area very well. - Once you are SOUTH of ALAMO STREET, you are IN Latin America.
(My favorite place to “go eat fish” is RUDY’S SEAFOOD on South Flores St. = LARGE/GREAT/FRESH/NEVER FROZEN fish filets, freshly cut French fries, crab cakes, fried oysters, etc. at REASONABLE PRICES & “you get more than you paid for” on their “family platters”. - The “9-piece platter” has at least 12 BIG filets & often 14-15 filets.)
RUDY’S has been in business for over 75 YEARS.- A “fish house” doesn’t stay in business, W/O being consistently GOOD.
I have a LOT of friends down there (as does my adopted daughter, wo has been a PROUD US CITIZEN since 05JUL2009. = Noemi was born & spent most of her girlhood in Acapulco & in The DF in Mexico.- She is a graduate of SACRED HEART college.), though I live “up north” of that area.
Southside is generally NOT a “bad area” of The Alamo City, regardless of what many of “the other than Tejanos” say. - Some of the BEST & MOST AUTHENTIC Mexican & Tex-Mex restaurants are in Southside, so the area is “well known” to most “locals” & many people go there for Dinner/Fiestas/etc.
(That said, IF “you are looking for trouble”, you CAN find it in Southside, as you can in any other place else in the World too.)

Well, I know one song that’s getting added to the playlist.

They must have booths there.
Don’t worry Greg Popovich will know what to do.
