Burnet County authorities said an investigation is underway after a Smithwick man shot an alleged trespasser at a residence on CR 346 overnight Tuesday.
Burnet County Sheriff's Chief Deputy Joe Canady said at about midnight on Tuesday night, a homeowner on CR 346 arrived at his residence to see a strange vehicle parked near his barn.
“There was a confrontation between the trespasser and the homeowner,” Canady said, and at some point the homeowner produced a handgun.
