The new chief is rolling out the 'Guardian Initiative.'
SAN ANTONIO — Officials say a man jailed in Bexar County died after he was found"unresponsive" in his cell Friday morning, marking the second such incident in as many days at the detention center located just west of downtown.
While the local medical examiner's office has yet to perform an autopsy, BCSO said"it appears that the inmate suffered a medical episode compounded by withdrawal symptoms," adding Salinas had prior chronic conditions requiring"a constant level of care." Sheriff Javier Salazar said the jail facility is seeing a growing number of individuals with severe health issues"and deadly withdrawal symptoms" being booked.
