TX: Arlington Armed Samaritan Stops Attack, to Late to Prevent Murder

The Arlington Police Department is investigating the overnight death of a 63-year-old woman.

On Monday, March 31, 2025, at approximately 11:58 p.m., officers responded to an apartment complex in the 2600 block of Whisper Meadow Lane to investigate reports of shots fired.

When they arrived on scene, they located the 63-year-old woman lying unresponsive in a breezeway. She was transported to an area hospital where she was later pronounced deceased.

A 37-year-old man on scene told officers he heard the woman screaming for help, then retrieved a gun and went to investigate. He said he saw an unknown man attacking her while holding a sharp object.

The 37-year-old pointed the gun at the suspect, indicated he would shoot, and ultimately fired a shot into the ground. At that point, the suspect left the scene on foot.

Through the course of their investigation, detectives learned the Tarrant County Community Supervision and Corrections Department received an ankle monitor tampering alert from an individual on probation, 23-year-old Jacob Arriaga Guerrero. Mr. Arriaga Guerrero matched the description of the suspect provided by multiple witnesses at the scene. GPS data provided by Tarrant County also placed him at the crime scene at the time of the attack.
