Person 'wearing only underwear' found firing weapon in middle of street, Kendall County deputies say

KENDALL COUNTY, Texas – The Kendall County Sheriff’s Office said it is investigating a shooting in a Boerne neighborhood early Wednesday morning.

According to a KCSO social media post, the Boerne Police Department’s Communications Center received a 911 call from a resident in the Bent Tree subdivision at approximately 4:55 a.m.

In the 911 call, the caller told a dispatcher that a “male subject” was standing in the street “wearing only underwear” and firing a handgun, the sheriff’s office said.

As Kendall County Sheriff’s deputies were on their way to the scene, the caller also told the dispatcher that the person “had fired a shot” in the 911 caller’s direction, according to KCSO.

Within minutes of the 911 call, deputies found the suspected shooter in the 100 block of Bent Tree Drive. Upon arrival, the sheriff’s office said another shooting occurred.

At this time, it is unclear if the suspected shooter fired at any sheriff’s deputies, if the deputies fired at the suspected shooter or if both took place. A KCSO spokesperson confirmed that no deputies were injured.

While KSAT was in the neighborhood, at least one Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) patrol vehicle was on scene.

A spokesperson for the sheriff’s office would not comment on the suspected shooter’s condition. The spokesperson also said its investigation remains ongoing.

KSAT also reached out to DPS for additional information.
