MOULTRIE — A domestic incident led to gunshots Thursday night but no one was injured.

Monica Edwards, 21, of East Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, told police a man she knew came to her apartment with a man she knew only by a nickname. She said they started fussing about her having another man in the apartment and her acquaintance slapped her. The man took his television and VCR, which she had had possession of, and went outside, she said.

When the men got outside, Edwards said, she heard the man she did not know say, “You got what you wanted. You don’t have to shoot her.” Then she heard two gunshots.

Police found a bullet hole in the living room window, wall and ceiling and four .380-caliber shell casings in the parking lot.



Arrests

A 14-year-old was arrested and turned over to his father in connection with a break-in at the Magnolia Sports Complex.

A patrolling officer said he saw the 14-year-old and a 17-year-old walking near Wal-Mart at about 1 a.m. Friday. The two said they had found a green Army duffel bag that had a baseball glove, a catcher’s mask, playing cards and other items in it. While the officer was talking with them, the 17-year-old ran. The officer ordered him to stop, but he kept running.

The 14-year-old’s father was called, and he was released to him.

A short time later, the same officer and another found the door to the upper floor of the sports complex had been broken into. The recovered items were turned over to Jim Burroughs of the Moultrie-Colquitt County Parks and Recreation Department, and the 14-year-old was charged with burglary and obstruction of an officer.

During the same incident, two concrete dogs taken from Wal-Mart were recovered and turned over to a store official. The 14-year-old was charged with theft by taking in connection with the statues.
