Texas’ ArlingtonTwo shootings on Saturday are thought to have been committed by the same set of suspects, according to Arlington police.
An apartment building on Deer Creek Drive, next to E Park Row Drive, was the scene of the initial shooting.
Shortly after 1:30 a.m., a 32-year-old woman was shot at the apartment.
Officers were informed by the woman’s boyfriend that several young males knocked on the door and inquired about a man who didn’t reside there. The gang started arguing with the guy. One of the males took out a revolver and began shooting at the flat after the boyfriend ordered the group to leave and went to fetch a bat.
A gunshot skimmed a dog, and the woman was struck in the arm. The dog is anticipated to be unharmed, while the woman was admitted to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
After boarding a Honda Civic, the suspects left the site.
About 12 kilometers from the first shooting site, the second shooting took place at roughly three in the morning.
When police arrived to a parking lot on Little Road, next to Highway 287, they discovered a 34-year-old male inside a parked car who had been shot.
Officers were told by a lady who was with the man when the shooting occurred that a car, which is thought to be the Honda Civic from the Deer Creek Drive incident, blocked them as they were getting into the car.
One of the four individuals who exited the car held a gun at the pair and ordered them to do so. Shortly later, the 34-year-old was hit by gunfire.
After getting back into the Honda Civic, the suspects took off.
The victim was very ill when they were brought to the hospital.
According to investigators, detectives were able to obtain a description of the car, which had been reported stolen in Dallas, with the aid of witness testimony and local security footage.
The car and a Lincoln Town Car that seemed to be pursuing the Honda were seen by officers just after five in the morning. The driver of the Honda fled when police tried to stop it.
The Lincoln came to a stop. The two individuals inside, according to the police, were connected to the suspects in the Honda.
Humberto Barajas, 20, was arrested and charged with two charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and one count of aggravated robbery in the Arlington City Jail. He also had an arrest warrant out for him in Dallas County on an unrelated aggravated assault case, according to Arlington Police.
Due to his age, the authorities did not reveal the identity of the other suspect, who was a minor. In addition, he was charged with one count of aggravated robbery and two charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Eventually, officers discovered that the Honda Civic had collided on Browning Drive. The 17-year-old Angel Barajas was taken into custody when it was thought that he was inside the car. He was accused of one count of aggravated robbery, two charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and one count of evading arrest.
According to Arlington police, they are still trying to find and identify a fourth suspect.
