San Antonio Police say they are still looking for a suspect in the fatal shooting of Detective Benjamin Marconi and that no arrest has been made.
Police issued the statement early Monday.
Marconi was fatally shot late Sunday morning while writing a ticket in his squad car.
Chief William McManus says an unknown suspect shot 50-year-old Marconi twice in the head. Marconi was a 20-year veteran of the force.
McManus say the officer had pulled over a vehicle and while he was inside his squad car writing a ticket, a vehicle pulled up behind him. He says the driver of that vehicle then walked up to the officer’s driver-side window and opened fire.
He says he does not believe the original motorist pulled over had any relationship to the shooter.
