Pacific Union was called to assess the scene.

KSAT-TV San Antonio, TC 4/5/18:
 

3 SAPD officers suspended after drunk woman was hit, killed by train

Documents say officers should not have left woman on roadside

 

 

SAN ANTONIO - The San Antonio Police Department suspended three officers it said made contact with a woman who was so drunk she was unresponsive, but left her only to get a call later that she had been hit and killed by a train.

 

Officers Michael Pullen, Steven Garcia and Sarah Carrasco received suspensions for the Oct. 8 incident. Documents obtained by the KSAT 12 Defenders said the officers failed "to protect the life of an individual who was intoxicated to the point of being unresponsive. Despite observing obvious signs of the individual's intoxicated state, (the officers) failed to assist her and left her at the location (4429 Walzem Rd.). Officers were later dispatched a short distance away (4500 Walzem Rd.), in which the same individual had been struck and killed by a train."
