CORPUS CHRISTI - A father who fatally shot his daughter’s ex-boyfriend was cleared of criminal charges after a grand jury declined to indict him.

Daniel Salazar, 56, was not indicted on a murder charge in the death of David Andrew Hernandez, 30, last week, according to officials with the Nueces County District Attorney’s Office.

Prosecutor Sara Neel said Friday the case could be represented to a grand jury if more evidence surfaces.

Hernandez died Oct. 13, 2014. Corpus Christi police said Hernandez went to a home in the 4000 block of Bray Drive where he and Salazar got into a scuffle. Hernandez was shot in the leg and chest and died at Christus Spohn Hospital Memorial, police said. Salazar was arrested on suspicion of murder.
