A Sayre woman is in jail after allegedly shooting her boyfriend in the head.
Luckily the victim survived the shooting.
According to a probable cause affidavit, 57-year-old Linda Fae Ellington was arrested on February 16 after police were dispatched to the home Ellington shared with the victim. In fact, it was Ellington who called police and told them that she had shot her boyfriend because they had been arguing and he was coming after her.
When police arrived, Ellington met the authorities outside with a pistol. She was ordered to put the gun down, and after doing so, was quickly detained while authorities searched the home. There, police would find the victim laying face down on a couch, still breathing. The officer was able to communicate with the man where he would tell the officer that he had been shot in the head. After further inspection, the officer was able to determine that the victim had been grazed on the left side of his head.
