HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — The Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office (FBCSO) has arrested the suspect in a domestic violence case that led to the closure of two schools. Jaime Ediel Buentello, 33, was taken into custody on Friday in the 10500 block of Southwest Freeway in Houston.
According to a spokesperson from Lamar CISD, the FBCSO informed the school district about a domestic violence incident involving a “member of their school community.” Although there was no direct threat to any Lamar CISD campus, student, or staff member, the district decided to close Gray Elementary and Randle High on Tuesday and Wednesday as a precaution.
Lamar CISD declined to comment on whether the suspect’s children attend Gray Elementary or Randle High, citing victim protection concerns.
