June 21, 2019 - Charges have been filed against three suspects arrested in the shooting of a man that occurred at 500 Dumble Street about 12:30 a.m. on Thursday (June 20).  

One suspect, David Aguilera (H/m, 17), is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in the 263rd State District Court.  A second male suspect, 16, was referred to Harris County Juvenile Probation authorities on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.  The third male suspect, also 16, was referred to Harris County Juvenile Probation authorities on a charge of unlawfully carrying a weapon.  A booking photo of Aguilera is attached to this news release. 

All three suspects are accused for their roles in the shooting of Chase Rivers, 25.

HPD Major Assaults & Family Violence Division Officers S. Ragsdale, R. Naughton and C. Grahmann reported: 

Mr. Rivers was riding his bike home from a nearby bar with others when the suspect's vehicle pulled up alongside him.  At that time, a passenger in the backseat fired a shot at Rivers, striking him in the left arm.  Paramedics transported Rivers to an area hospital in stable condition.   

The suspects fled the scene, but their vehicle was stopped a short time later by a HPD South Central Crime Suppression patrol unit.  Aguilera, the driver, as well as the shooter (juvenile suspect) and another passenger (juvenile suspect) were arrested without incident.

Anyone with information in this case is urged to contact the HPD Major Assaults & Family Violence Division at 713-308-8800.
