Man dies in shooting on north side, suspect in police custody

A witness told KENS 5 he was cleaning his vehicle at the car wash next door when he saw a man yelling at a woman in the Dunkin' drive-thru behind the nail salon.

SAN ANTONIO — A man who was shot on the city's northside across the street from Churchill High School just before 1 p.m. Monday has died, police said. Investigators said 46-year-old Ryan Vo was taken to the hospital for his injuries and died there.

According to the San Antonio Police Department, officers surrounded a Dunkin' location and Cozy Nails Lounge in the 11900 block of Blanco Road after an argument inside the nail salon escalated. Kiet Tuan Nguyen, 42, has been charged with murder and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Investigators said after the shooting he took off, but police were able to catch up to him not far away from the shooting scene. Investigators did not say why the two men were arguing.

Michael Mancha was an eyewitness and was next door washing his car when he saw a man yelling at a woman in the Dunkin' drive-thru behind the nail salon. 

“I heard four loud pops,” he said. "It sounded like gunshots." 

Mancha said he turned around and looked across towards the alley of Cozy Nails Lounge. 

“I saw a man standing there with a gun,” he said. 

He said that's when two car wash employees started yelling. 

“She was just yelling at everybody,” he said. “Get in your car. Get in your car. Go! Go! Get out! 

Mancha left. But before he did, he said he saw the gunman yelling.

“I had saw that he had a gun,” he said." And then I was like oh that was gun shots. But I couldn't really tell if it was defensive gunshots, or if he was chasing someone." 

San Antonio police said the suspect and another man were arguing inside the nail salon off Blanco Road, and it escalated outside. 

Mancha moved back to San Antonio just days ago. He said he is glad he's safe. 

“It is pretty intense,” Mancha said.
