SAN ANTONIO - It was not a random, mass-shooting attempt like the ones in Newtown, Connecticut or Aurora, Colorado. We are learning more details about a man who opened fire at a local movie theater, wounding one person. Investigators say that young man was angry after his girlfriend broke up with him.

It happened Sunday night at the Santikos Mayan Palace 14 Theater on Southwest Military just off I-35. There are bullet holes in the exterior of the theater, but the gunman wasn't trying to hit movie-goers. He was apparently targeting some of his co-workers who he had chased out of a restaurant located right across the parking lot.

It could have been a tragedy, if an off-duty Sheriff's Sgt. working security for the theater hadn't taken down the gunman.

The gunman first showed up at the China Garden Restaurant, where investigators say he worked, along with his ex-girlfriend. Workers there were cleaning up shattered glass on Monday afternoon but had no comment.

Investigators believe the gunman chased restaurant employees out a back, side-door, and continued to shoot at them in the parking lot. He also shot through the windshield of an SAPD patrol car that pulled up, but the officer wasn't hit.

At least one restaurant employee ran into the Mayan Palace Theater trying to escape, but the gunman followed.

“We heard shots and right away we took off and hid behind some seats,” said Jessica Bosquez, who was in one of the auditoriums waiting to watch the movie, “The Hobbit”.

The gunman continued firing as he ran through the theater lobby, and movie-goers took cover then ran for the exits.

“We stayed hiding for like, ten minutes, then we saw a woman who hid where we were hiding take off for the exit so we took off too,” said Bosquez.

The gunman, identified as 19-year-old Jesus Manuel Garcia, didn’t appear to be firing indiscriminately. Witnesses saw him chasing someone who ran into the bathroom.

“A lot of people were hiding in the restroom, so I can only imagine the person he was chasing after ran inside the restroom,” said Joseph Monsalvo, who saw the gunman briefly, before running out an exit.

The Bexar County Sheriff's Office says the off-duty sergeant, who was working security, heard the gunshots and came running. She saw the gunman coming out of the men's restroom. The Sheriff’s Office says the gunman did not shoot at her, but his gun was drawn so she opened fire.

That off-duty sergeant, identified as Lisa Castellano, fired four times, wounding the gunman. Only one other person was wounded, a 49-year-old man inside the theater, who was hit by one of the gunman's shots. Both are expected to recover.

Investigators say about 30 rounds were fired. It’s unclear why the break-up with his girlfriend caused the man to go after his co-workers. Investigators haven’t ruled out a love-triangle involving someone else at the restaurant.

I thought about saying this is pro gun owners, and this is for banning guns, but after I thought about it there was to many variables we all could make up to go in our favor so just thought I would say good for that cop and why did the media not post this?

Because the media (besides fox), wants everyone to believe that guns should be banned, and that no good will come of them. If the dipshits that support banning guns had their way, this might not have been averted, and then the media would have reported on it.

so far the banning on guns in canada is working

but banning guns in usa now after 100 years allowing them won't do anything

i think i may just be that it was an off duty cop who happened to be working security. The last security officer in the news killed a woman at walmart this is just someone who did thier job correctly. Now had this had been a plain clothes civilian who stopped the shooter and made a citizens arrest then it would be one hell of a story. This still may hit the news though its the first im hearing of it and i havemt seen the news all day. that being said i dont know if its been on or not.

the important thing is that the cop did her job correctly and no one was killed. 9 tomes out of 10 if you point a gun at a cop youre going to die.

I guess he got a Call OFF Duty.

Good thing that off duty cop was there and armed!

Leave it to a bitch to complicate lives and push a man over the edge. If that hoe cheated, she deserves what the man was trying to bring her. This wasn't a mass shooting so my typical response isn't necessary, nor does it apply. On another note, if you're gonna kill someone, wait patiently and single them out before squeezing the trigger. She must have done something to deserve him coming after her.
