Austin High Teen Shoots Fleeing Car Near Lady Bird Lake Trail

By Allen Y Chen on Nov 24, 2009


Hot on the heels of that pellet gun punk who was recently accused of injuring a cyclist on Southwest Parkway last May, another Austin High student has been charged in a shooting incident that occurred near the school last night.


Jay David Carbullido, a 17-year-old senior at Austin High, was involved in a heated exchanged with a female student on Stephen F. Austin Drive when the other teen decided to leave. As the car carrying the girl pulled away, Carbullido fetched a .22-caliber rifle from his trunk and shot at the car, striking it four times and breaking one of the windows. No one was hurt.

Carbullido later turned himself into police, and now faces five counts of aggravated assault.
