Sounds like they are getting charged

The Waller County Sheriff's Office said it was now pursuing dangerous conduct charges against three people suspected of firing off guns nearby.

“Dangerous conduct”. wtf, I hope that’s a felony, but it really sounds like slap in a wrist like crossing the street not in the crosswalk

Sometimes prosecutors who want to charge someone with multiple charges pick the easiest one to get an indictment on first. That lets them hold the guy / force him to post bail while they work on other charges.
