AUSTIN, Texas — Police have arrested a man accused of shooting and killing a person Sunday morning in South Austin.
Police said the shooting happened at approximately 7:27 a.m. Sunday at 1781 Spyglass Dr., which is the address for the Landmark at Barton Creek apartment complex.
When officers arrived at the scene, they found one person had a gunshot wound, and that victim later died. The victim was identified on Nov. 9 as Alex Arce, 25. APD said Arce and 38-year-old Jason Hardison got into an argument over the ownership of a shotgun. The two men struggled with the shotgun and discharged and struck Arce.
Hardison has been arrested and is currently charged with manslaughter. APD said those charges could potentially be upgraded if the prosecutor determines it was actually an intentional act of murder.
Hardison's bond has been set at $20,000.
No further information was immediately available.
