On Saturday, charging documents show that Quintin Mitchell, 24, is charged with aggravated assault.
The incident happened at around 5 a.m. on Friday at the Life at Jackson Square apartments, according to Mitchell's sister-in-law, Konta Davis.
The accused peeping tom was met with bullets on Friday morning after allegedly smashing a window in a Meyerland apartment.

Davis' sister, Derrion, said her husband went outside to confront the man, who she said was armed with a butcher knife in addition to the hammer.
"And shots just went off," she said.
Derrion said her husband, Quintin, shot the peeping tom in the leg, and relatives then called police.
On Friday, ABC13 captured the accused vandal limping to an ambulance while in handcuffs.
Residents at the apartment complex tell Eyewitness News they've spotted the man peering in their windows in the past. They say he's been squatting in a vacant unit.
"I literally am scared to actually be in these apartments or in this area anymore because HPD doesn't take anything serious, like, they just let everything go around here," Derrion said.
