Shortly after his estranged wife was acquitted in a stabbing Tuesday, Ariel Ginjauma was caught on a doorbell video in Hobart chasing and shooting at her as she ran down the street.

Now, he could face decades in prison.

Ginjauma, a.k.a. Ariel Gomez, 44, now of Gary, was charged Wednesday afternoon in Lake Superior Court with 10 felonies, including two counts of attempted murder, both Level 1 felonies. Each count carries a 20-40 year penalty.

He was also charged with two each counts of attempted aggravated battery, intimidation, one count each of criminal recklessness, domestic battery, resisting law enforcement and possession of cocaine.

A court date is not set. A lawyer is not yet listed.

Court records allege he pushed into the home and pointed a gun at a 15-year-old girl at the top of the stairs. After the girl bolted to a bathroom, he fired a shot in the house. Ginjauma then chased Evelyn Ginjauma, 43, outside the home and started to open fire. No one was hurt.

The Post-Tribune is naming the woman only because she was charged in her own criminal case leading up to the shooting.

Hobart Police responded at 4:25 p.m. Nov. 14 to a home on Lake View Drive. Ariel was arrested in a red Dodge Charger soon after in a “short pursuit.”

Evelyn had just arrived home from court, when she heard “loud, aggressive banging” on the door. She assumed Ariel was there to drop off their 3-year-old son. They were supposed to meet at the police station to drop off the boy.

When she opened the door, Ariel grabbed her arm, pushed her to the kitchen. He pulled out a gun and pointed it at the teen girl, who had come out of her bedroom to see what was going on.

He fired a shot that hit a closet door. Evelyn ran to the kitchen and called 911. She then ran outside to a cop neighbor’s house as Ariel chased her, according to an affidavit.

The teen girl said she was video chatting with her aunt, when she left the bedroom.

“You better not call the police,” Ariel allegedly told the girl.

She ran into the bathroom, then heard a shot outside. She thought Ariel pointed the gun at her and it “clicked” because it was not properly loaded. Ariel went outside and the girl heard Evelyn screaming.

Arresting police officers said Ariel glanced at them with “wide eyes open” during the chase. He sideswiped a police car, then was arrested later near 38th Place and Wisconsin Street. The gun was not in the Charger. They found an empty .40-caliber magazine, “tactical-style” gun light and two cell phones.

Earlier, security video shows him running to the house and trying to force his way inside. He then stumbled and fell, before trying to get inside twice more. When Evelyn opened the door, he appeared to have a gun on his waist.

He pointed it at the girl up the stairs. He grabbed Evelyn, pointing the gun at her. He appeared to shoot her, but the gun jammed. At one point, he put a clear bottle and two bags of cocaine at the bottom of the stairs.

He then chased Evelyn outside, firing a shot. The magazine fell out. He went back to get it, before shooting at her at least four more times.

“Come here,” he said, during the shooting.

Ariel was on bond for a February 2023 domestic battery case with Evelyn, court records show. Court records show Ariel Ginjauma filed for divorce on Nov. 9, 2023.

Evelyn Ginjauma stood trial on Nov. 13-14 for two counts of battery, stemming from a December 29, 2022 incident where a woman told police she was having a drink with Ariel, his sister and brother-in-law around 10 p.m. in the basement of the 1000 block of Lake View Drive residence when Evelyn grabbed her head from behind and stabbed her with a large kitchen knife, records state.

The woman ran up the stairs and outside, only noticing later that the back of her head was bloody. She texted Ariel and told police that they were only “business associates,” not dating. Ariel told police that Evelyn came downstairs and yelled for everyone to get out. She tried to stab the other woman “several” times. He pushed Evelyn into the wall to get her away from the woman.

Evelyn Ginjauma was acquitted in the trial.

Ariel Ginjauma spent nearly 20 years in prison for a murder he didn’t commit, court filings show.

At 17, he was arrested in Chicago with four other teens after a man was killed during celebrations for the Bulls’ 1997 championship win. He was convicted in 1998.

The victim, Concepcion Diaz, 32, of Cicero, was shot while waiting for the bus at Diversey and Cicero Avenues. The murder conviction was tossed in 2018. Ariel pleaded guilty to firing a gun in the air once during the festivities.

Ginjauma, named as Gomez, sued disgraced Chicago Detective Reynaldo Guevara and the city of Chicago in federal court for wrongful conviction in 2018. That case is still pending.

His lawyer Steven Edwards Art was not immediately available Thursday.

Over four dozen men accused Guevara of “manipulating witnesses, fabricating evidence and framing suspects over the course of his career,” according to the Chicago Tribune.
