A woman was arrested in Coconut Creek Thursday for shooting a woman inside the residence she shared with her, then lying about the crime to detectives, authorities said.
According to a Coconut Creek Police Department Facebook post, Anne Carty, 33, was charged with domestic aggravated battery, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and tampering with an investigation.
She was booked into the Broward County Main Jail and released on an unspecific bond amount.
“Evidence at this time indicates Carty shot the victim inside their residence in the 4700 block of NW 57th Place on September 20,” police wrote in their post announcing the arrest.
The victim was taken to Broward Health North for treatment. Her injuries were not life-threatening, police said.
“The victim and Carty were familiar with each other before the incident,” police added.
No additional information about the case was immediately made public Monday.
