TX: Midlothian- Domestic Defense Gunfight, Girl Wounded

According to the report, after the altercation, Nienhuis went to his truck and got a handgun. He walked back to the house and fired several rounds, one of which struck the caller's 11-year-old sister, the report states. Nienhuis then drove away from the scene.  

Nienhuis returned to the house minutes later, where he was confronted by another of his sons who had armed himself with a rifle. They exchanged gunfire in the front yard.

Midlothian police said they believe no one was injured during the second shooting, but houses and vehicles belonging to several neighbors were damaged by gunfire.

Midlothian police officers arrived at the home at 7:17 p.m. and confronted Nienhuis, who had armed himself with a knife. Officers pleaded with him to drop the knife, but he refused and then stabbed himself in the neck. Officers charged him and retrieved the knife.
