A man who called the police about a gunshot wound a couple of days ago, was evidently shot by a neighbor, that according to police.

The Murfreesboro police report that WGNS obtained Tuesday stated, "I responded to Chippewa Place in reference to the complainant calling to advise he had been shot while lying in bed."

Once on the scene, the victim told Detective Gorham at 1 in the morning that he heard a gunshot while in bed and felt something hit his ankle. Upon checking his ankle, he saw a bullet hole in his wall and his mirror was broken. He then called 9-1-1.

Police went to the next door neighbor's address where a female was questioned about the shooting. That neighbor told the detective that the shot came from her condominium or apartment. The 33-year old woman told police she retrieved the gun to show her friends.

The report stated, "When she got to her bedroom she stated she picked the gun up and aimed it at the wall and pulled the trigger to see if it was unloaded, at which time it discharged."

As a result of the shooting, even though it was not meant to hit a neighbor, the female was charged with "Felony Reckless Endangerment" and Vandalism. The woman was later booked under a $6,500 bond. She will appear in court on May 11, 2015. The Rutherford County Sheriff's Office recorded that she was booked behind bars at 2 AM Monday morning and released on bond by 3:33 that same day.
