Investigation by Violent Crimes Division detectives led to last night’s arrest of a 17-year-old female shooting suspect who allegedly fired shots toward another woman after a verbal/physical altercation on August 31 outside TNT’s Billiards Bar & Grill on Bell Road. The victim was struck in the cheek and treated for a non-life threatening wound.
Detectives located the teen sitting in a Dodge Challenger at the Shell station, 1110 Bell Road, where she was taken into custody after attempting to run from the car. A loaded handgun fell to the ground as she attempted to flee. Recovered from the Dodge Challenger were white powder, pills, and $8,000 cash.
During an interview, she implicated herself in the shooting. The teen is charged in Juvenile Court with attempted homicide, two counts of aggravated assault, felony drug possession, juvenile handgun possession, and gun possession during the commission of a felony.
