Lawyer: Teen shot by San Antonio cop released from hospital

San Antonio Police Department

A teen shot by a San Antonio police officer as he put his car in reverse while eating a hamburger has been released after weeks in a hospital, his family's lawyer said Wednesday.

Erik Cantu was allowed to go home nearly two months after he was shot in a McDonald’s parking lot, according to a statement from attorney Ben Crump. The 17-year-old's parents said they're “overjoyed at his progress in the past two weeks,” but that he “still has a long road to recovery.”
