SAN ANTONIO — A man told police he accidentally shot and killed his wife at a home on the far west side Wednesday, according to the Bexar County Sheriff's Office.
The incident happened just after 10:30 a.m. in the 14400 block of Gunsight Pass, near Talley Road and Culebra. When deputies arrived at the location, they found a woman, identified as 66-year-old Magin Hernandez, lying on the kitchen floor with a gunshot wound to the head.
