The Arlington Police Department says 25-year-old Webb tracked down his ex-girlfriend after she moved out of state to escape him. Investigators say Webb had been repeatedly calling and texting her before allegedly showing up uninvited at an apartment in the 700 block of Forest Hills Drive around 11 p.m. Tuesday night.

A short time later, officers received a second call reporting a gunshot victim outside an apartment just minutes away. Officers found the wounded man responsive and rushed him to a nearby hospital, where doctors expect him to survive. Meanwhile, the remaining occupants—including the children—escaped through a back window and ran for safety.
