A witness told police that he or she went to a home in the 400 block of Pleasant Ridge Road with Woods and two others to get a vehicle belonging to the witness's uncle.

When they arrived at the home, they began arguing with the residents about having the vehicle towed from the property. The argument led to a physical fight.

Barnet allegedly punched the witness in the lip. The witness told police Woods then pulled out a small pistol and shot Barnet once in the chest.

Woods was arrested and sent to the Allegheny County Jail. She has since been released on bail. She was initially charged with criminal attempt-criminal homicide, aggravated assault and recklessly endangering another person.
