Man Fatally Shoots Girlfriend's Ex-Husband [During a home invasion]
In the Hill Country, a man is dead after an alleged domestic dispute and apparent break in.
Thirty-three-year-old Brandon Joseph Steele died Monday after being shot at a duplex on Granite Shoals Street. Authorities believe that he broke into his ex-wife's house through a bedroom window.
The woman, her boyfriend and a 5-year-old child were in that room. Steele allegedly threatened them.
The boyfriend told police that's when he shot Steele. The ex-wife claims he had come to the house earlier, intoxicated and belligerent.
"This is a situation which has all indications of being a self defense issue. Unfortunately, there was a life taken in this event, so we have to proceed with it as if it is a homicide," Chief Bill Lane of Horseshoe Bay said.
Autopsy results are pending.
Police have made no arrests."
