San Antonio Police allege that on May 19, 21-year-old Angel Gabriel Cuevas drove toward two officers while attempting to flee the area in a stolen car, leading the officers to open fire.

Authorities say that just before 7 p.m. on May 19, officers responding to a narcotics call at 17800 La Cantera Parkway were alerted of a stolen vehicle by their car's license plate reader.

The officers then parked their patrol car behind the vehicle to prevent it from leaving.

While those officers were attending to the narcotics call, Angel Gabriel Cuevas allegedly returned to the stolen vehicle and attempted to drive away.

When those officers returned and attempted to stop Cuevas from fleeing, he allegedly drove towards the officers, intending to ram them.

Those officers then opened fire on Cuevas, fatally striking him. He was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital
