MCSO says that Corporal Tripp responded to a shots-fired call in the 5400 block of Pecan Road. The investigation revealed that Hunter Destin fired a gun while inside a bedroom at the residence and fled the scene before deputies arrived.

Because Destin is a convicted felon, he is not allowed to legally possess firearms. He was arrested and transported to jail.
