圣安东尼奥警察局解雇了一名警察，因为监控录像显示他射杀了一名青少年吃汉堡在德克萨斯州的麦当劳停车场。
这名17岁的少年被警方确认为埃里克·坎图，他身中多枪，目前仍在医院接受治疗。
圣安东尼奥警察局长威廉·麦克马纳斯(William McManus)表示，由于詹姆斯·布伦南(James Brennand)的行为违反了部门策略、培训和程序，该部门周三就此事件解雇了他。
据警方称，布伦南德警官在10月2日回应一个骚扰电话时，注意到一辆车，他认为前一天晚上在试图停车时逃离了他。
录像显示，警官走向汽车并打开车门，这时他看到Cantu在一名女乘客旁边吃汉堡，于是命令他出去。
警方称，这名警官报告说，当这名少年开始倒车时，车门撞到了他。
Bodycam视频显示，这名警官向行驶中的车辆开了10枪，然后徒步追赶。
警方称，事故中车上的乘客没有受伤。
在周日给ABC新闻的一份声明中，坎图的家人通过他的律师表示，这名少年正在依靠生命维持系统，努力活下去。
“我们感谢您对埃里克康复状况的衷心关注。坎图的律师布莱恩·鲍尔斯(Brian Powers)说:“我们会告诉你，他仍然处于危急状态，几乎每天每分钟都在与生命抗争，因为他的身体承受了巨大的创伤。”“他仍在依靠生命维持系统。此时，我们需要所有能得到的祝福。除了这次更新，我们请求隐私，因为这是我们生命中微妙的时刻，我们专注于一件事，那就是让他回家。”
在布伦南被解雇后，圣安东尼奥警察协会没有立即发表评论，但在美国广播公司新闻的一份新声明中，该协会主席丹尼·迪亚兹表示，该组织不会代表布伦南，因为他在枪击事件发生时尚未完成新警察的一年试用期。
迪亚兹说:“新招募的警察必须完成一年的试用期，才有资格享受工会提供的福利。”“我们理解圣安东尼奥警察局解雇詹姆斯·布伦南警官的决定，但在全面调查完成之前，我们不会发表进一步评论。”
San Antonio police officer fired after shooting 17-year-old in McDonald’s parking lot
The San Antonio Police Department fired a police officer after bodycam footage showed him shooting a teenagereating a hamburgerin a McDonald's parking lot in Texas.
The 17-year-old, identified by police as Erik Cantu, was shot multiple times and remains hospitalized.
The department terminated Officer James Brennand on Wednesday over the incident due to his actions, which violated department tactics, training and procedures, according to San Antonio Police Chief William McManus.
According to police, Officer Brennand was responding to a disturbance call on Oct. 2 when he noticed a vehicle he thought had fled from him the night before during an attempted stop.
The footage shows the officer approaching the car and opening the door, when he sees Cantu eating a hamburger alongside a female passenger and orders him out.
Police said the officer reported the car door hit him as the teen started to reverse the car.
Bodycam video shows the officer firing 10 times at the moving vehicle before chasing after it on foot.
Police said that the passenger in the vehicle was not injured during the incident.
In a statement to ABC News on Sunday, Cantu's family, through his attorney, said the teenager is on life support and fighting to stay alive.
"We thank you for the heartfelt thoughts on the status of Erik's recovery. We will inform you that he's still in critical condition and literally fighting for his life every minute of the day as his body has endured a tremendous amount of trauma," Cantu's attorney, Brian Powers, said. "He is still on life support. We need all the blessing we can receive at this time. We kindly ask for privacy beyond this update as this is a delicate moment in our lives and we are focusing on one thing and that's getting him home."
The San Antonio Police Officer's Association had no comment immediately following Brennand's dismissal from the force, but in a new statement to ABC News, the president of the union, Danny Diaz, said that the organization will not represent Brennand because he had not completed his 1-year probationary period for new officers at the time of the shooting.
"New police recruits must complete a 1-year probationary period before becoming eligible for benefits provided by the union," Diaz said. "We understand the San Antonio Police Department's decision to terminate Officer James Brennand but will refrain from further comment until a full investigation is completed."
