A grand jury in Texas indicted a woman on Thursday who is accused of attacking her then-boyfriend in a shooting that left him in the hospital for weeks — and now he’s speaking out.
Alexys Pinto, 23, was arrested in September and charged with aggravated assault of a family member in the non-fatal shooting of her then-boyfriend, Elvis Muñoz, according to Harris County court records reviewed by HuffPost. Pinto was released last week after a judge reduced her bond from $75,000 to $10,000.
Muñoz told local CBS affiliate KHOU that he’s afraid “she might want to come back and do something.”
Muñoz, a mechanic, told police that on Sept 5., he received a vehicle to work on from a client when he was at home with Pinto, according to a criminal complaint obtained by HuffPost.

“I literally couldn’t believe it,” Muñoz told ABC affiliate KTRK. “I looked down, and I started seeing all the blood running down my body, gushing.”
Muñoz sustained a gunshot wound to his hand and chest, according to the complaint. The next thing he recalled was Pinto holding a black gun.
Muñoz told police he was in disbelief and thought he had to run away, but Pinto fired more rounds at him, according to the complaint. Muñoz said he heard Pinto telling someone over the phone, “He shot me,” before he tried to interrupt, saying, “No, I didn’t.”
