SAN ANTONIO — A firefighter helped detain a man who began fighting with an officer in the department headquarters last week.

The department wrote on Facebook that a man came into the lobby seeking assistance. At some point, for an unknown reason, the officer and man began struggling.

Firefighter Justin Hill witnessed the confrontation and ran down from the second floor to help the officer subdue the man.
