Man Killed While Playing Russian Roulette
Victim Identified As Albert Delgado

SAN ANTONIO -- An 18-year-old man died early Friday when he shot himself during a game of Russian roulette, police said.
Police said Albert Delgado and some friends were playing with a gun on the front porch of a home in the 2000 block of North Trinity Street at 3 a.m. when the victim shot himself in the head. He died at the scene.
Delgado's friends told police that he didn't think the gun was loaded but his mother doesn't believe the story.
"There's something suspicious about it," said Rebecca Garza, Delgado's mother. "My son did not shoot himself."
Garza said her son would have been alive had they not woken him up.
"Why did they come with the gun?" Garza said. "Nothing would have happened if they wouldn't have brought a gun."
After the shooting, the other teenagers took off running, and all but one were found hiding in a home next door, police said.
No charges have been filed and police are questioning Delgado's friends but it appears that their stories are matching up.
