The security guard shot at a Freeport chemical plant last month surrendered to police after being charged with two misdemeanors in an unrelated incident.

Robert Murray House of Angleton surrendered to Lake Jackson police Saturday after learning he was wanted on charges of making a terroristic threat and interference with an emergency telephone call, said Sgt. Gary Kendrick.

The charges stem from a Jan. 17 altercation with a woman, Kendrick said. House is accused of interrupting the woman's 911 call and threatening her.

House, 43, was unarmed and working security outside BASF's chemical plant Jan. 23 when he was shot in the shoulder.

He said the gunman -- whom he described as having dark hair, a mustache and a thick foreign accent -- was taking pictures of lights at the plant. The FBI and local police have not found the gunman and have said the incident is not related to terrorism.

That is interesting.
We'll see where this story and the shooting leads to.
