The woman swiftly contacted the police and withdrew to her bedroom with her kids. Garcia pursued the family, trying to smash through the bedroom door, rather than concentrating on the belongings.
The mother snatched up her gun and alerted the invader that she was armed out of concern for her kids. Regretfully, he ignored it.
Garcia was struck in the left arm by a single bullet that the woman reportedly fired through the door of her bedroom.
Naturally, the assailant was deterred by a single shot, and he quickly left the house before the police could reach him.
Before police arrived, Garcia was able to flee into a field 100 yards away. He was admitted to the Hidalgo County Jail after receiving emergency medical care.
