SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Two men were killed in separate shootings by law enforcement officers early Saturday morning in Central Texas.

In the first, Bexar County Sheriff's officials say 28-year-old Adrian Barnes was shot five times while inside his car by Deputy Wendell Morris. Officials say Morris shot the man after he allegedly aimed a loaded handgun at him while at a party at his home.

In the second, San Antonio Police Officer Gilbert Guzman shot and killed 46-year-old Michael Galloway. Authorities say Galloway pointed a gun at them after he threatened suicide and refused to open the front door to his relatives.

Family members for Galloway told San Antonio television station KABB that the shooting was not justified.

Galloway owned a local nightclub.
