A Baxter County woman was arrested Thursday morning after her boyfriend was shot, deputies said.
Stacy L. Conley, 51, of Baxter County faces charges of first-degree domestic battery, possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia, according to a news release from the Baxter County sheriff’s office.
Deputies said they responded at around 7:33 a.m. Thursday to Baxter County Road 13, about 4 miles northwest of the Mountain Home city limits, after a report of a shooting. The deputies were told that the victim had gone to a neighbor's house after the shooting.
Deputies found the man had been shot in the chest, but they described him as mobile and responsive. A witness said the shooting took place in the yard at Conley's residence, according to the release. The witness reported hearing Conley and the man arguing, and then heard a gunshot.
Conley was found at a nearby family member’s residence, and she surrendered to deputies, the release states.
She was booked in the Baxter County jail, where she remained Friday in lieu of $75,000 bond, according to the jail inmate roster.
