A woman in Arizona has been arrested after she allegedly shot at two teenagers in a vehicle following an altercation between the three of them, according to authorities.
Around 9:15 p.m. on Sept. 7, officers responded to the report of a shooting in the parking lot of a Walmart in Goodyear, the city's police department said.
Officers determined a dispute occurred between an adult female, identified as 46-year-old Shydonica Black, and two juveniles.
Black allegedly shot at the teens, but no one was injured during the incident, officials said.
Court documents show Black and one of the teens got into a disagreement after Black allegedly almost hit them with her vehicle while they were walking in the parking lot, KPHO-TV reported.
Black then allegedly threatened to “blow their heads off” before the teens drove off, officials said.
While they pair were leaving the scene, Black fired her gun at their vehicle multiple times, causing the back windshield to break, police said, noting the suspect's two children were in her car while the dispute was taking place.
