The search continues for a Dripping Springs man suspected of shooting and injuring a male family member earlier this month.


Authorities are asking for the public’s help in locating Grosbin A. Sabillon, 30, of Dripping Springs, who fled the scene of a March 8 aggravated assault case at a Dripping Springs residence.


Sabillon is believed to be in the Austin or Dripping Springs area and driving a red Dodge pickup; he was last seen driving that vehicle from the residence of the shooting.


The pickup truck is described as a 2006 red Dodge 4-door pickup truck with tinted windows. There was no license plate information available.


Sabillon is described as standing at 5-feet, 7-inches tall and weighing 160 pounds. He has black hair, brown eyes, a medium skin tone and no visible tattoos.


Authorities believe Sabillion should still be considered armed and dangerous.


A warrant for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a second degree felony, was issued for Sabillion earlier this month.


According to a Hays County press release, deputies responded to the 28000 block of Ranch Road 12 in Dripping Springs for suspicious circumstances.


When deputies arrived, they found a 26-year-old man, later identified as Joe Anthony Cortez, with a gunshot wound.


Cortez was conscious and breathing when he was taken to an Austin-area hospital with a non-life threatning injury.


He was later released from the hospital after receving treatment and is expected to make a full recovery, according to the release.


Anyone with information regarding the case should contact the Hays County Sheriff’s Office at 512-393-7896 and ask to speak with the Criminal Investigations Division.
