Grand jury drops attempted murder charge against ex-San Antonio cop who shot Erik Cantu
The Bexar County District Attorney's Office has dropped an attempted murder charge against the former San Antonio police officer under indictment for shooting 17-year-old Erik Cantu in a McDonald's parking lot in 2022, the Express-News reports. Initially, former officer James Brennand faced three charges, including two counts of aggravated assault by a public servant — both first-degree felonies — and one count of attempted murder. However, a grand jury last week removed the attempted murder charge, replacing it with a lesser charge of deadly conduct, the daily reports.
