The Bexar County District Attorney’s Office has dropped an attempted murder charge against the former San Antonio police officer under indictment for shooting 17-year-old Erik Cantu in a McDonald’s parking lot in 2022, the Express-News reports. Initially, former officer James Brennand faced three charges, including two counts of aggravated assault by a public servant — both first-degree felonies — and one count of attempted murder. However, a grand jury last week removed the attempted murder charge, replacing it with a lesser charge of deadly conduct, the daily reports.
