What Police Said
According to the Round Rock Police Department, officers arrived to find a male victim suffering from multiple stab wounds. He was transported to a local hospital with injuries that were described as non-life-threatening.
In the department's post, police identified the suspect as 51-year-old Juan Enrique Sanches and said he was taken into custody at the scene. Sanches was booked into the Williamson County jail on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, according to the same post.
Booking And How To Check
Authorities say the suspect was booked into Williamson County custody. Family members and attorneys who want information on booking status or court dates are directed to contact the sheriff's office.
The Williamson County Sheriff's Office website lists contact details for its corrections bureau and provides guidance for inmate inquiries. The sheriff's office also publishes phone numbers and lookup tools for checking bookings and court scheduling.
Legal Implications
Aggravated assault with a deadly weapon is typically prosecuted as a second-degree felony in Texas. It carries a possible sentence of two to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000, according to the Texas Penal Code §22.02.
The charge reported by police remains an allegation. Sanches, like any suspect, is presumed innocent unless and until he is proven guilty in court.
