Suspect in road rage shooting arrested Sheriff further explains response, negotiations that took place Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Guadalupe County) – A Seguin man accused in a road rage shooting and hours-long standoff Monday night is now in custody, and authorities say all three of his children have been found safe. The Guadalupe County Sheriff ’s Office says Justin Gutierrez was arrested at 7:12 a.m. Tuesday after deputies, along with officers from the Seguin Police Department, located him in the 700 block of Stratton Oaks here in Seguin. Investigators say multiple community tips led officers to Gutierrez’s location. He was taken into custody without incident, and officials say no one was injured during the arrest. Gutierrez was booked on warrants for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon causing bodily injury and unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon. Investigators say additional charges could be filed as the case remains under investigation. Meanwhile, Guadalupe County
Sheriff Joshua Ray is offering additional details about the incident – specifically addressing public concerns about law enforcement’s response, particularly the hours-long negotiations spent that evening at a Pine Street home. Ray says the incident first began on Interstate 10 but ultimately ended up at the location off of Old Seguin Luling Road. He says that’s when Gutierrez, reportedly opened fire on another vehicle –striking the man that allegedly was chasing him and his wife. “The gentleman, Gutierrez, that we were pursuing most of the evening, he opened fire on the vehicle that the victim was in and shot five times and one of those hit the victim in the head. Luckily, fortunately, it ended up not being life-threatening. So, he was treated for it and is expected to make a full recovery,” said Ray. At this point, Ray says investigators are still working to determine what led up to the shooting. Shooting, pg. 2.
