A suspended San Antonio police
officer, who was accused of sexually assaulting a 19-year-old woman in
his marked patrol car in 2013, was shot on Thursday night by a woman
during a dispute inside a home, officials said.

Jackie
Neal was in stable condition at a local hospital and awaiting surgery
after the shooting. The woman was arrested and charged with aggravated
assault with a deadly weapon, the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office said on
its Twitter account.

Neal had
been indefinitely suspended after being arrested for allegedly trailing
a woman in his patrol car for several blocks before pulling her over
and accusing her of driving a stolen car in November 2013.

When
she showed the officer a receipt for the vehicle, Neal handcuffed her,
allegedly fondled her through her clothes, forced her into the back seat
of the patrol car and then sexually assaulted her, according to the
arrest affidavit.

The woman
who filed the complaint told San Antonio television station KSAT that
Neal showed up at her home several hours after the alleged incident.

“He told me that if I told anybody, he would look for me,” the woman, who has not be identified by name, told the broadcaster.

KSAT
reported on Thursday that the woman who shot Neal was his long-time
girlfriend, identified by authorities as 47-year-old Sandra Diaz, who
lived with him at the home.
