PTSD veteran attempted suicide by cop at Little Caesars

Fake assault rifle scare at Little Caesars

SAN ANTONIO -- Employees at an East Side pizza shop got a scare Wednesday night when an Army vet barged in carrying assault rifles.

Police say the 30-year-old vet walked into the Little Caesars near South W.W. White near Martin Luther King Drive with two fake assault-type rifles just before 8:30 p.m. Wednesday.

"The officers were very quick to respond, and we were in the right place at the right time," said Sgt. Javier Salazar. "Everybody pulled together as a team and we got the job done."

Police say the man taunted officers from the lobby, and held a gun to his face before surrendering. The vet, who reportedly suffers from P.T.S.D., also told police he needed help and wanted to commit suicide by cop. The man was taken into custody, and police say he will be charged with making terroristic threats.
