The manslaughter count is a charge, not a finding that she fired the shot. Jaron Collins is dead. What police say happened in the street still has to be proved.
Angelica Chavez, 28, is charged with manslaughter in the killing of Jaron Collins, 35. Baytown police say the two were neighbors.
Police say they were arguing in the street in the 5100 block of Cinnamon Lane when Chavez took out a gun and shot him. Officers found Collins unresponsive, with a gunshot wound, and pronounced him dead at the scene. The call came in at 4:50 p.m. Wednesday.
Police say Chavez went into her house after the shooting. Officers later took her into custody. On Thursday they named her and announced the manslaughter charge.
All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

The deaths and the jail docket are not the same case. Theft of the Prius and the assaults inside the jail do not accuse him of the stabbings. Until a homicide charge is filed, the jail file does not answer who stabbed Willis and Mary Libbey.
