According to Fischer, however, the detectives discovered that the child had been actually injured at his grandmother’s home. A witness stated that the child sustained his injury in Katy, Texas, where the child’s mother and father live. Katy is reportedly 30 miles west of Houston, says Sheriff’s Captain Dalia Simons in a press conference.

Charges Against False Report

According to Kandel, Aguillon has faced charges of injury to a child and making a false report after filing a false police report. Aguillon was then booked into jail. Simons stated that others could have also faced charges had the child’s condition become worse. Fortunately, the child did not suffer from any life-threatening injury and was in a stable condition. 

Authorities stated that the child’s injury might have stemmed from possible mishandling of the weapon in the bedroom. Simons said the child could have been playing or messing around with the weapon. In addition, Simons stated that her agency is now collaborating with the Fort Bend County District Attorney’s office and child protective services for the case.
