A Webster Parish man has been charged with aggravated criminal damage to property for allegedly firing shots at a residence, then using the weapon to break windows at the home.

Webster Parish Sheriff Jason Parker said 18-year-old Samuel Paul Moya, a resident of the 700 block of Oglee Rd. in Springhill, was arrested Wednesday and is currently being held at Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center. No bond has been set.

According to investigators, Moya fired three rounds from a 410-gauge shotgun toward the house, then proceeded to break more than a dozen windows using the barrel of the gun. No one reportedly was injured.

WPSO Det. Terry Brown reportedly developed Moya as a suspect after a brief investigation into the incident. The suspect reportedly admitted to the crime during an interview at the Sheriff’s Office substation.
