SAN ANTONIO (KTSA News) — A man has been gunned down during a robbery attempt in a Northwest side parking lot.

Police were told by the shooter that he was walking to his apartment when three men in a Prius began circling him. They got out of the car, showed they were armed and told the man to hand over his belongings.
