A repeat offender from Texas has been apprehended once more, this time for his suspected involvement in a trio of shootings over a span of just one month.
Abraham Herrera, 21, is now facing multiple charges related to two alleged drive-by shootings and a standoff with a SWAT team in Hays County, which is approximately 15 miles from Austin, as reported by FOX 7.
The initial incident reportedly occurred on November 3, with authorities responding to reports of gunfire in the 500 block of Santa Fe Run in Kyle.
Upon arrival, Hays County deputies discovered a homeowner who had sustained serious injuries after several bullets were fired into the residence. FOX 7 noted that investigators labeled the shooting as an indiscriminate act of violence, unable to determine any specific motive.

Herrera was subsequently charged with evading arrest or detention, unlawful carrying of weapons, disorderly conduct, and tampering or fabricating with evidence, according to the outlet.Â
Despite the charges, court records obtained by FOX 7 indicate Herrera was released from jail just two days after his standoff with SWAT.Â
On Dec. 1, investigators were reportedly made aware of a second drive-by shooting in Martindale that occurred the weekend of Thanksgiving, with evidence allegedly pointing to Herrera.Â

Three days later, investigators reportedly linked shell casings found at the scene of the November shooting in Kyle to the firearm seized from Herrera during his standoff with SWAT.
He is now facing additional charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, stemming from the first drive-by shooting, along with disorderly conduct with a firearm, tampering with physical evidence, and evading arrest, with his total combined bond amount set at $409,500, FOX 7 reported.Â
