More Details Released From Overnight Shooting
WARSAW — The affidavit of probable cause from the overnight shooting on Oct. 16, has been filed.
Jennifer Lynn Hollar, 35, 331 N. Park Ave., Warsaw, is being charged with criminal recklessness with a deadly weapon.
Around 1 a.m., an officer with the Warsaw Police Department responded to a domestic battery with a gunshot wound. When the officer arrived, he found two female subjects standing next to a male lying on the floor with a gunshot wound to his abdomen. A small, black semi-automatic handgun was lying on the kitchen table and an empty shell casing was lying on the floor.
A search warrant for the residence was received and the females were removed from the residence. When officers were talking about suspect information, Hollar spoke up and stated, “That would be me.” Blood was observed on Hollar’s body and shoes.
The other female advised she received a phone call from Hollar asking her to come to the residence. When she arrived, Hollar advised she had shot the male victim. Hollar and the male victim had been living together at the residence for about one year.
Officers then spoke with the victim who advised Hollar had come home extremely agitated and began punching him. Hollar went into the bedroom and returned to where the victim was standing. She walked within two feet of him and the victim heard a pop. Hollar shot him in the abdomen.
The victim was transported to a Fort Wayne hospital with a bullet hole in his right side abdomen. The bullet had passed through the abdomen and lodged in the area of the spine.
Hollar is in custody at the Kosciusko County Jail with a prosecution hold. The bail amount has been set for $20,250 surety and cash.
