White Settlement homicide: victim shot at same house involved in 2025 incident

Homicide in White Settlement at same house as 2025 shooting

A woman was killed in White Settlement in a shooting that took place at the same house from a 2025 shooting incident. Police confirmed the woman killed today was not the one shot in 2025. FOX 4's Amelia Jones has more.

WHITE SETTLEMENT, Texas - A woman has died after a shooting at a house in White Settlement, the same house that saw a different woman injured in a shooting last year.

What we know:

White Settlement police responded to a call in the 600 block of Meadow Park Drive in White Settlement in regard to a shooting.

One victim, a woman in her 30s, was transported to the hospital from the scene. Police said she was in critical condition and was later pronounced deceased.

A nearby doorbell camera recorded two people running out of the home and into the street after several gunshots are heard. They were wearing dark clothing and hooded sweatshirts. Witnesses say they saw them jump into a green car when fleeing the scene.

White Settlement PD released still photographs of the shooting suspects.

"The suspects appear to have been wearing dark-colored clothing, black hooded sweatshirts that were pulled over the top of their heads, and black face coverings. It is believed the suspects entered the home through a door on the south side of the residence. As the suspects were trying to flee from inside the residence, one suspect, while standing outside, started to turn towards the adult woman and point a handgun at her. The suspect then discharged the handgun multiple times, striking the woman who was still inside the home while the door was open," White Settlement PD said in a statement.

Two schools and a daycare located near the incident were placed on lockdown.

"Liberty Elementary and Brewer Middle School were placed in Secure due to police activity in the area but are no longer. During a Secure, students and staff are brought into the building, and the outside doors are locked. Inside, school is conducted as usual," White Settlement ISD's Desiree Coyle said in an email to FOX 4.

The backstory:

Police say the house involved in the incident is the same one that a teen was shot at in June 2025.

White Settlement teen survives shooting; Suspect apprehended after self-inflicted wound

A 17-year-old girl survived being shot three times during an illegal vape transaction in White Settlement, leading to the arrest of the suspect, who also accidentally shot himself.

A 17-year-old girl was shot three times during a meet-up in White Settlement during an illegal vape exchange, but survived.

Police identified the suspect as 20-year-old Alejandro Carrasco Jr., who also accidentally shot himself in the foot during the incident.

Carrasco was apprehended at a nearby urgent care facility after being identified by the victim and a witness.

What they're saying:

Douglas Boswell was there when the shots rang out.

"The neighbor's mother came running out screaming, my daughter was shot!," Boswell told FOX 4's Amelia Jones. "I ran over there to assist, her daughter was shot, I seen three holes, one lower part of the spine, one middle of the spine and one in the left shoulder."

White Settlement PD confirmed the victim is not the same woman who was shot in the June 2025 incident.

"The victim, a different woman, was shot multiple times. She ended up surviving, and we made an arrest in that case because the suspect accidentally shot himself in the foot as he fled the scene," White Settlement police chief Christopher Cook told Jones. 

They did say it was unusual to have a second shooting at the same house, so they are looking into a variety of possible motives.

"We're not sure if that's going to be tied or connected at all, but it is unusual to have a shooting that's a second shooting at the same location that occurred this past summer," Cook continued.
