Brennand's bullets caused extensive damage to Cantu's stomach, diaphragm, lungs, liver, bicep and forearm, according to his family, and the teenager spent weeks on life support following the incident. Cantu was taken off life support in early November and was reportedly awake and playing with Legos last week.

Brennand was fired from the force days after the shooting and was later charged with two counts of aggravated assault by a public servant, a first-degree felony. The former officer was released from Bexar County Jail after posting a $200,000 bond and is awaiting a court date.
