Ryan Ameer Shah, 39, lured his 37-year-old ex-wife into her friend’s apartment parking garage at 2525 South Voss Road in Houston by texting her a picture of her vandalized car.
When she investigated, he appeared and started beating her, at which point, fearing for her life, she shot him.
Shah, who had a previous conviction for assault, was charged with assault on a family member.
The woman, having armed herself and chosen not to be a victim, was not seriously injured.
