SAN ANTONIO — Two men were hospitalized early Sunday morning after being shot on the Northwest Side.

Police began receiving phone calls around 4 a.m. from a man who said he had been shot near loop 1604.

Police were able to track the man down to the UTSA campus.

When they arrived, they found two men inside a car, identified by authorities as Phillip Harris, 20, and Terrell Scruggs, 20, both of whom had been shot.

The men were taken to University Hospital for treatment shortly after the incident.

Harris had been shot in the back and was listed in critical condition, according to police.

Scruggs, who had been hit four times, was listed in serious condition.

Preliminary details are that the Scruggs and Harris had been at an off-campus party when they got into an argument with another man.

As they were leaving, police said the man began shooting at their vehicle.

The pair then drove onto campus seeking help.
