Woman Faces Murder Charges After Shooting A Man Who Said She Was A Bad Driver!
"A woman is in jail Friday after police say she
fired a gun in the direction of a man who
confronted her about her "reckless driving."
The Bamberg County woman is facing a laundry list
of charges, including attempted murder.
Walterboro Public Safety officers responded to the
Walgreens on North Jeffries Boulevard around 3
p.m. Thursday after receiving reports of a gunshot
being fired. When they arrived, the victim told
police that after seeing 31-year-old Sharon
Brabham driving recklessly on Bells Highway, he
followed her into the parking lot and confronted
her.
Authorities say Brabham, an employee at the
Walgreens, then pulled out a .38 caliber handgun
and fired a shot in his direction. Police say the
bullet missed the victim, but did strike another
car which happened to belong to one of her bosses.
The bullet only dented the vehicle.
The incident report states that Brabham admitted
to authorities on scene that she did fire the
weapon "in the area of the victim." Police found
the loaded handgun in the center console of
Brabham's vehicle. Walterboro Public Safety
officers say she did not have to have a license to
keep the handgun in her vehicle.
Brabham has one prior conviction on her record.
She was convicted of check fraud in July 2000." -
