The Texas Neighborhood Coalition鈥檚 Plano Chapter, an advocacy group that speaks out against short-term rentals, sent 四虎影院 footage of the shooting from a neighbor鈥檚 Ring camera. The group said a bullet went through the window of child鈥檚 playroom in a neighbor鈥檚 home.
Coalition members said they plan to speak during public comments at the Monday Plano City Council meeting.
Plano police the shooting occurred outside the short-term rental, where a party was held. No one was injured but two arrests were made. Police said the investigation is ongoing and it鈥檚 unknown if those suspects were involved.
James Horton was arrested at the scene for evading arrest and for possession of marijuana. Collin County jail records show that Horton, 24, was released on Monday. A woman identified as Trinity Banks was also arrested for interfering with the public duties of a peace officer. Police say Banks also allegedly damaged a patrol car. Collin County jail records show Banks was also released Monday.
The coalition said the property was listed on Airbnb but has been removed from the rental site. Airbnb said in an email to 四虎影院 that there wasn鈥檛 a reservation at that address over the weekend. The short-term rental company said there were reservation attempts made on their website that were blocked by the company鈥檚 screening technologies that are designed to prevent parties.
Luis Briones from Airbnb said in a previous interview with 四虎影院 that Airbnb has a strict policy against parties. Briones, a public policy manager for the travel rental site, said they have technology in place to stop parties before they occur.
鈥淲hen incidents do occur, we work with local stakeholders,鈥� Briones said.
Sunday鈥檚 incident is about three miles from the short-term rental where Plano police made arrests related to sex-trafficking in September. Police said they don鈥檛 believe the two incidents are related.
Airbnb confirmed in September that incident wasn鈥檛 at an Airbnb.
