MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) — The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office said a fight between neighbors in Kings Colony ended with a 17-year-old hospitalized with gunshot wounds on Saturday afternoon.

MCSO said deputies responded to multiple 911 calls about an active shooter at about 4:20 p.m. in the 19000 block of Nottingham Street.

Authorities said when deputies arrived at the scene, they heard multiple gunshots, which prompted an even larger law enforcement response. MCSO said its SWAT team was then called to the scene.

Officials said when the SWAT unit arrived at the scene, the suspect, identified as a 60-year-old Juan Ayala-Montero, came out of a residence he had barricaded himself inside, and surrendered to the officers.

According to MCSO, the incident began as a fight between Ayala-Montero and a 17-year-old. Following the fight, Ayala-Montero began pointing his firearm at multiple people in the neighborhood in various directions, MCSO said, adding that officers recovered about 31 fired shell casings from the scene.

Witnesses reported to law enforcement that they attempted to de-escalate the situation and persuade Ayala-Montero to drop the weapon, but he continued firing.

Neighbors said the heavy law enforcement response was alarming.

“After looking outside my kitchen window, I noticed the line of police cars everywhere,” resident Jonathan Gonzalez said.

Gonzalez said he initially feared someone had been seriously injured or that a hostage situation was unfolding.

“I see those on the news but never think it’s going to be in my neighborhood,” Gonzalez said.

He said the proximity of the incident to his home raised concerns for his family’s safety.

“I was worrying because my family is right here … I was scared they would be the neighbors next door or stray bullets,” Gonzalez said.

Initial reports from several 911 calls indicated that there were multiple victims; however, it was later determined that only the 17-year-old suffered a gunshot wound, investigators said. The teenager was treated at a local hospital and was later released, officials said. Ayala-Montero was also treated for minor injuries, investigators said.

MCSO said it was later determined in the investigation that the 17-year-old provided law enforcement with false information and “hindered the investigation.” The teenager has been charged with false report to a peace officer, authorities said.

Ayala-Montero was arrested and is currently in custody at the Montgomery County Jail, officials said, adding that he is charged with deadly conduct-discharging a firearm, which is a felony. Ayala-Montero, who officials said has a criminal history, has been previously deported from the US and also has a Federal ICE detainer in place at this time, authorities explained.

No law enforcement officers were injured in the incident, officials said.

MCSO said the investigation is still ongoing.
