Rockwall, TX-Feb. 28, 2025 - At approximately 1:30 p.m., deputies from the Rockwall County Sheriff’s Office responded to a disturbance in the 1700 block of FM 2453. It was reported that a resident had fired a weapon near utility contractors who were working in the area. Upon arrival, the deputies observed a subject matching the suspect's description entering a vehicle at the residence where he was last seen. The subject then drove towards a deputy who had turned into the driveway but quickly reversed and drove behind a metal building on the property, causing the deputies to lose visual contact. The deputies called for additional assistance, and officers from the Royse City Police Department and the Fate Department of Public Safety arrived to help contain the location and prevent the suspected armed subject from escaping. With help from the suspect’s family, the deputies were able to identify the suspect and obtained a cell phone number to contact him. Attempts to reach the suspect by phone were unsuccessful, as he either hung up or did not answer. During the investigation, detectives determined there was probable cause to obtain a warrant for the suspect on the charge of aggravated assault. After an extensive search using drones and a helicopter from the Texas Department of Public Safety, the suspect was located and taken into custody at approximately 6:07 p.m. The release of the suspect’s name is pending arraignment. Throughout this incident, the Rockwall Sheriff’s Office received assistance from the Hunt County Sheriff’s Office, the Texas Department of Public Safety, and the Rockwall Police Department.
