San Antonio’s KSAT-TV has parted ways with a staff meteorologist charged with assault, according to details the station’s website.
Elliot Wilson — whom KSAT describes in a news story about his arrest as a “former” meteorologist at the station — was picked up Thursday after Bexar County Sheriff’s deputies said he was involved in an altercation with a woman.
Deputies responded to a call from a home Thursday, where the woman told deputies that Wilson struck her when he was driving her to a medical appointment, KSAT reports, citing information from the sheriff’s office. The two were reportedly in a vehicle on Loop 410 when they got into an argument.
The woman was taken to a hospital, where she was diagnosed with a broken nose, according the station.
Deputies arrested Wilson the same day, KSAT reports. He now faces a charge of assault — bodily injury to a family member, according to the story, again citing the sheriff’s office. The case remains under investigation.
In its report, KSAT didn’t specify whether Wilson quit or was fired. However, the story was updated Saturday to reflect that he’s no longer employed there.
Wilson joined KSAT late last year. He worked as a meteorologist in Texas and Oklahoma TV markets, including Waco, before landing in San Antonio, according to a story the station did on his arrival.
