appellant to the Texas Youth Commission for a term not to exceed 20 years. Tex. Fam. Code Ann. 53.045, 54.04(d)(3) (Supp.

herself with a pistol. Appellant announced that he had come for Westbrook's daughter, Ashley. Westbrook fired a warning shot
and then appellant fired, hitting Westbrook in the chest. Appellant demanded the car keys from Ashley, took Westbrook's pistol
from the floor, and ordered Ashley into the car at gunpoint. As appellant was backing out of the driveway, he was apprehended
by police officers.
