Shots were fired on Cedar Street last night but no one was hurt. But this wasn't any gang warfare; it was a domestic case. A man seems to have taken his common law wife - and her licensed gun - to settle a dispute with his daughter's mother.
Police are calling it an aggravated burglary. Around 8:00, 41 year old Barbara Myers was at her mother's Cedar Street home with her family when a woman walked towards the front door, took a gun from her waist and pointed it at them. She then fired a single shot in the air and walked away. No one was injured but Police recovered one expended .380 shell and live .380 rounds.
Apparently, what preceded this was a visit from the father of Myers's daughter. They had an argument and the father left only to return with his common law wife, her mother, and sister. A bigger argument ensued, the common law allegedly pulled out her licensed firearm and pointed it in Myers face. She ten pointed it in the air, and let off a shot. We understand the common law has been detained.
