KERRVILLE, Texas -- Usually everyone knows each other in the 1200 block of Jefferson Street in Kerrville. But around 7:15 p.m. Monday, motion detection lights alerted a 24-year-old woman to an unwelcome and unkown person outside her house.
"The individual was seen on the front porch of the residence with his pants down exposing himself," said Kerrville Police Officer Paul Gonzales.
The woman grabbed a gun from her bedroom and fired a shot toward the ground.
"She feared for her life, she was scared and intimidated by this individual," said Gonzales.
Zak Emmons lives across the street from the woman and heard her fire the weapon.
"That's when I came out here to talk to her and she was letting me know, Zak, he's back, he's back," said Emmons.
The same woman had a peeping tom at her window in January.
"This guy needs to be off the streets," said Emmons.
During the first incident the man wore a mask. The second time he wore a black hoodie. Although officers can't say for sure if it is the same person, they don't believe these were random acts, but rather the victim was targeted.
"There have been no other reports by residents in the community pertaining to this individual," said Gonzales.
Still, Emmons has warned all his neighbors and they are watching out.
"Hopefully, I mean, he's stupid enough come around again, we'll get him," said Emmons.
Anyone with information is asked to call Kerrville Police Department's Criminal Investigation Unit at 830-257-8181.
