https://www.click2houston.com/news/local/2025/09/21/gunfire-near-katy-baseball-fields-injures-coach-during-game-officials-say/KATY, Texas – Three people have been identified, and charges are pending after a coach was shot in Katy during a baseball game. They are not in custody.The Waller County Sheriff’s Office responded to reports of a shooting near the Ameripark youth baseball field located at 4256 F.M. 2855 on Sunday afternoon, and found a 27-year-old coach shot in the shoulder.According to investigators, three people were shooting from a nearby pasture in the direction of the baseball field while a youth game was taking place.“I had to legit bear crawl to my mom on my arms,” said 11-year-old Colton Bierman, who plays for the Texas Colts and was at the tournament with his mother, Kelly.Coaches Alex Smith and Corbin Giesendorf of the Texas Colts helped players and families to safety after the shots rang out.“It’s hard for me to talk about right now because of their faces. I’ll never forget looking at them,” Smith said.

>>1441026Well at least they're charging them with something.I wonder if "shooting without knowing/caring what's behind your target" is actually specified in that "deadly conduct" law or if it's just the closest fit. You'd think they'd have something specific about not shooting towards schools and school activities even if they don't have any laws about keeping guns away from them in general.
>>1441026>“Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.”kek
>>1441055>You'd think they'd have something specific about not shooting towards schools and school activitiesIts Texas. You'd think they wouldn't allow kids to camp in a floodplain during flood season, but they don't do that either.
>>1441089>1-2 People died>Outlaw everythingLiggerals, everyone. Does this seem like true liberal behavior?
>>1441055It says shooting towards a "habitation, building or vehicle." Notably this is not a school but a sports park in the outskirts, but there's obviously cars and bathrooms there. Anyway, the fact that there was a real injury inflicted with a deadly weapon seems like aggravated assault would be on the table.
>>1441092>Outlaw everythingWe're only discussing outlawing nakedly deadly behavior. Ideally that shouldn't require anyone dying.Why the fuck do you need a 9/11 to happen to outlaw "selling leaded soda" tier nonsense?
>>1441092Understanding what exists in the direction you intend to shoot your loaded firearm at shouldn't be a controversial thing. How many NDs have you had this year?
>>1441099>We're only talking about outlawing things that are already illegalGot it. So the job is done. Enforce the law.
>>1441102FDA recalling leaded soda 15 years later...A real example would be Roundup... I remember farmers talking how safe it is. Guess what, it isn't safe. Lol, jokes on them.
>>1441513The farmers said it was safe because the FDA said it was safe because the company and their lobbyists said it was safe... how about them experts, ay?
>>1441092>Chuds when the 1-2 people are their parents or themselves*Cries like a baby and asks for justice
