Texas cop shot man in fight over switching sex partners

SAN ANTONIO, Texas - A Texas police officer has been suspended and faces charges after authorities say he shot a man at least three times in a fight over switching sex partners, CBS affiliate KENS reports.

Frankie Salazar, 29, an Olmos Park police officer, was arrested inside a San Antonio home around 3:30 a.m. Saturday. A background check on Salazar reportedly indicates he lives at the home where the arrest took place. 

The victim, 33-year-old Jesus Guitron, was taken to San Antonio Military Medical Center in critical condition, reports the station.

A preliminary report released by San Antonio Police Department indicates Guitron was stabilized after arriving at the hospital, according to the station. 

Olmos Park Police Chief Fritz Bohne said Salazar has been suspended while the department reviews the facts of the incident. He reportedly faces charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Salazar has been an officer with Olmos Park since January.

The police report from the incident indicates Guitron and Officer Salazar got into a physical altercation after a woman inside the home was uncomfortable with the men's plan of "switching partners sexually."

According to the report, another woman handed Salazar a .45 caliber handgun.

Police said Salazar then shot Guitron in the chest, hand and possibly his pinkie finger, according to the station.

Police reportedly found Guitron lying in the street when they arrived on scene.
