The McAllen Police Department took a man into custody on Monday after he called police to say he shot a man in self defense.
In a news release, police said they responded to a call about a disturbance in the 2000 block of Redbud Avenue about 3:35 p.m. Monday.
“Reporting Person … called the McAllen Police Department and stated that, ‘he shot a male … in self-defense,’” the release stated. The man, whose identity is being withheld pending notification of next of kin, died, according to police.
