DETAILS: San Angelo Woman Arrested for Shooting Man Below the Belt

 

SAN ANGELO – A San Angelo woman has been arrested for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after shooting a man in the leg.

According to police reports, a San Angelo police officer was dispatched to Shannon Medical Center, located at 120 East Harris regarding a shooting victim last Saturday. Once officers arrived, they were informed that the shooting occurred at a residence in the 4100 block of Nottingham Trail. 

The investigator went to Shannon to speak with the victim who was unconscious from medication and was about to undergo surgery on a gunshot wound to his upper right calf. At the crime scene, the investigator spoke with a witness who said she, the victim, and the defendant, identified as Angel Valdez, were in the bedroom.

Valdez pulled a handgun from her waistband, took out the magazine, pointed the gun at the victim, and shot him in the leg. The witness then said Valdez left without attempting to render aid to the victim.

Another witness corroborated this story and ended up driving the victim to Shannon Medical Center for treatment.

The investigator was finally able to speak with the victim who stated that he, a witness, and Valdez were in a bedroom at the residence where Valdez pulled a gun from her waistband and waved it around the room. She took the magazine out of the gun, pointed it at the victim, and shot him in the leg.

Valdez was arrested on Thursday, August 18, 2022, and is being held in lieu of  $100,000 bond.
