Deputy inspecting woman’s car after shooting (CREDIT: WINK) At a stop light, he fired shots, shattering her windshield. The woman told deputies that Hamilton then got out of his car, walked over and fired at the backseat window where her children were. When Hamilton tried to get in the car, another man inside the vehicle fired back. “It sounded like a car backfiring. But you hear that once. This was like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom,” said Bill Charlton. Charlton has lived in Lehigh Acres for 50 years. He said he never witnessed anything like it before from his porch on Friday. The woman took off in the car and Hamilton tried to follow before a large number of deputies swarmed State Road 82 near Sunshine Boulevard. According to police records, no one sustained serious physical injuries from the incident. Hamilton is charged with four counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, two counts of cruelty toward a child and several other allegations.
