Alfonso Perez and his daughter were awake late Wednesday, finishing math homework in their Westcreek Villages home in far west Bexar County when they heard gunshots from the street behind his house.
The next morning, he discovered one round had gone through his closet and stopped in his son’s bedroom, just feet away from where he slept, stopping in a poster of an issue of the Batman title “Detective Comics” next to his bed.
Perez called 911 and relayed the information to authorities. The stray bullet that struck Perez’s house is believed to have come from a woman who fired a handgun with an extended magazine at random from the passenger seat of a moving vehicle, according to the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office. She filmed and posted it to her Instagram account.
The caption read: “my (expletive) bangs.” The woman, who goes by yourfavgennyy on Instagram, discharged more than 20 rounds at the passing houses.
A copy of the video was posted to Reddit and Twitter. Yourfavgennyy’s Instagram account has since been deleted.
Friday afternoon, BCSO announced that 22-year-old Genesis Amanie Rodriguez had been taken into custody in relation to the shooting. She has been charged with deadly conduct with a firearm, a 3rd degree felony. She was also charged with a misdemeanor for possession of a firearm, which is a violation of a current protective order.
Sheriff Javier Salazar said in a news conference Friday evening that Rodriguez "Has been in the Bexar County jail before and that is where she finds herself again." He also called the actions in the video "Drunken act of stupidity," and that it was "By God's grace nobody was hurt or killed as a result of their stupidity."
