A Harris County man is facing multiple charges after being arrested on Monday for allegedly violating a protective order and threatening the life of an infant.

Suspect accused of kidnapping, assault

The backstory:

During a news briefing on Monday night, Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said they received a call for service for a disturbance around 9 a.m. Monday morning.

Gonzalez said a woman had been confronted by an ex or an estranged husband.

Authorities said a gun was produced by the male suspect, and he fled with the 4-month-old, Gonzalez said.

Gonzalez stated an investigation began, and they weren't able to initially locate the suspect. Later in the day, authorities received information from sources that the man may have been at Princess Garden Way near West Orem in Harris County's City Park area.

According to court documents, SWAT was called out to the barricaded suspect with an infant. Records claim Holmes threatened to kill himself and the infant.

During the standoff, officials said they heard a gunshot, which may have been fired by the suspect, and that's when authorities went into the home, Gonzalez said.

Officials said the infant was safely secured and is being checked out by ambulance.

Gonzalez said the man was taken into custody and wasn't injured.

Holmes had previously been convicted on charges of possession of controlled substances.

He was on bail for a separate robbery charge from May 2026 at the time of the incident.
