WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Authorities say an 18-year-old Wichita woman has been arrested in the fatal shooting of her boyfriend.
The Wichita Eagle reports that Rina Han Nguyen, is jailed on suspicion of first-degree murder and criminal discharge of a firearm at an occupied dwelling in the death of her boyfriend, 22-year-old Amare Holt. Her bond is set at $300,000. It wasn’t immediately known if she had an attorney.
Wichita police Lt. Jeff Gilmore said the two got into an argument before 5:45 p.m. Wednesday at Nguyen’s apartment.
Gilmore said Holt was walking out the front door of the apartment when Nguyen pulled out a handgun and started shooting. Holt was hit multiple times and died at a hospital less than an hour later.
Bullets also shattered an apartment where a couple were bathing their two children.
Gilmore said that after the shooting Nguyen left in a vehicle and later returned, at which point she was arrested without incident. Police said they are not looking for any other suspects in the case.
Gilmore said there is an open case of domestic violence between Nguyen and Holt from December.
