Two men have been arrested in connection with a September 28 shooting at a residence in the 500 block of Pond Springs Drive in DeSoto, police said. Brandon Bussey, 50, and Jeremiah Stevenson, 36, face charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. The DeSoto Police Department said the shooting wounded a man, while Bussey also sustained a gunshot wound.
According to police, surveillance footage showed two armed people entering the residence and confronting the victim; shots were fired during the confrontation. The victim was shot in the abdomen and taken to a local hospital. Police have not said how Bussey was wounded or who shot him.
A separate DeSoto shooting offers context, not a trend
The arrests follow another reported shooting at a DeSoto home, but the earlier case had a different outcome. The Dallas Morning News reported on July 15, 2022, that one man was killed and another wounded in a shooting at a home in the 600 block of Canyon Place, near South Polk Street and East Parkerville Road. That incident is separate from the Pond Springs Drive case; two examples do not establish a broader pattern in DeSoto.
Police said detectives identified Bussey and Stevenson in the days after the Pond Springs Drive shooting and obtained arrest warrants. The U.S. Marshals Service helped investigators locate and apprehend both men. The department has not disclosed the victim’s identity or current condition, or whether the victim knew either suspect.
