Diego Delacruz

An Erath County grand jury on Thursday indicted 16 people, including a teenager charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.


Eighteen-year-old Diego Daniel Delacruz was indicted on three counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.



According to the arrest affidavit, the incident began June 14 when Deputy Jake Gillispie with the Erath County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call on Sorrel Court where a man wearing nothing but a pair of black underwear was allegedly breaking windows and throwing rocks at cars.


The deputy said he then heard multiple gunshots and saw a man covered in blood and holding a baby running toward his patrol car then observed a second male victim who appeared to have been shot lying on the ground, according to the report.

Delacruz fled on foot, but was apprehended a short time later by Stephenville police.


Both victims survived the shooting, and the child was struck by pellets.


Delacruz is being held at the Erath County Jail on a $225,000 bond.
