Erik Cantu, who survived a 2022 shooting by a former San Antonio police officer, was arrested again on an assault charge stemming from a 2024 incident.

Cantu, 20, was taken into custody on Friday and charged with assault causing bodily injury, charging records show.

An arrest warrant affidavit states Cantu threw a woman to the ground, stomped on her head, and punched and kicked her in the early hours of Sept. 28, 2024, at a gas station on the South Side.

A warrant for his arrest in the case wasn’t issued until Thursday, Sept. 18.

Cantu was 17 years old when he was hospitalized for nearly two months after being shot multiple times in a McDonald’s parking lot on Blanco Road by former SAPD officer James Brennand in October 2022.
