Kirby police are continuing their investigation one day after a home invasion led a man to shoot at the intruders, killing one teen, sending another to the hospital and a third to a jail cell.

Police say the shooter, homeowner Gabriel Arenal, 26, probably won't face any charges after the shooting near the 2800 block of Von Braun and the 5100 block of Gordon Cooper in Kirby. He was taken into custody after the shooting and questioned, then later released.

17-year-old Alex Aleman was killed, and Justin Rivera, also 17, underwent surgery at Brooke Army Medical Center is is expected to survive, police said.

A third suspect, 18-year-old Oscar Alatorre, was jailed and charged with felony burglary of a habitation.
