SAFD cuts ties with cadet accused of choking woman, forcing himself on her in back of vehicle

– A San Antonio Fire Department cadet has been terminated after Shavano Park police said he choked a woman and attempted to sexually assault her in the back of a vehicle in late January.

A woman told police Estrada “became aggressive in nature” while they were kissing in the back of his vehicle following a date, an arrest affidavit shows. Estrada was taken into custody on Jan. 30 while at the San Antonio Fire Academy on Callaghan Road and charged with felony family violence. An SAFD spokesman confirmed Thursday that Estrada has been terminated and that his arrest did not impact operations at the training academy.
