Witnesses say they saw them jump into a green car when fleeing the scene.
White Settlement police chief Christopher Cook says the active scene remains under investigation.

What they’re saying:
Two schools near the incident were placed in Secure during the incident.
“Liberty Elementary and Brewer Middle School were placed in Secure due to police activity in the area but are no longer. During a Secure, students and staff are brought into the building, and the outside doors are locked. Inside, school is conducted as usual,” White Settlement ISD’s Desiree Coyle said in an email to FOX 4.
The schools are no longer in Secure as of the writing of this article.
The backstory:
Police say the house involved in the incident is the same one that a teen was shot at in June 2025.
A 17-year-old girl was shot three times during a meet-up in White Settlement during an illegal vape exchange, but survived.
Police identified the suspect as 20-year-old Alejandro Carrasco Jr., who also accidentally shot himself in the foot during the incident.
Carrasco was apprehended at a nearby urgent care facility after being identified by the victim and a witness.
