On the evening of February 21, 2023, 48-year-old Shane Saenz arrived at Spohn Shoreline Hospital in Corpus Christi, Texas, suffering from a gunshot wound. Medical personnel immediately attended to him; however, despite their efforts, Saenz succumbed to his injuries.
The Corpus Christi Police Department (CCPD) was notified of the situation at approximately 9:15 p.m. Subsequent investigations led officers to a residence in the 600 block of 14th Street around 12:50 a.m.
on February 22, where they suspected the shooting had occurred. Upon arrival, officers observed a man inside the residence holding a handgun. Attempts to persuade the occupants to exit voluntarily were unsuccessful, prompting the deployment of the SWAT team. Using a loudspeaker, SWAT officers eventually convinced three individuals to leave the house. These individuals were detained for questioning; however, no arrests were made at that time.
