PRESS RELEASE

[PRESS RELEASE]-Maverick County, Texas March 21, 2018

Maverick County Sheriff's Units responded to the Tierra Del Sol subdivision this evening after receiving reports of shots fired in the area. Upon arrival, it was learned that a male subject at the scene was being transported to the Fort Duncan Regional Medical Center with an apparent single gunshot wound. Preliminary investigations at the scene revealed a home invasion gone wrong, as the wounded subject arrived at the residence wearing a ski-mask and carried a .22 caliber rifle. An apparent scuffle occurred with the homeowner, who was able to take possession of the weapon and shot the suspect. The suspect was later pronounced deceased and a formal autopsy was requested. The homeowner has not been charged pending an investigation and the case has been referred to the District Attorney's Office.
