The Lee County Sheriff’s Office has arrested a woman following a shooting investigation conducted in Lehigh Acres.

Deputies arrested Roshanda Churchwell Chrisp, 51, early Wednesday after she allegedly shot her husband near 49th Street West.

According to LCSO, the shooting injured the hand of Todd Chrisp, and he was transported to a Gulf Coast Medical Center for treatment.

The victim sustained a single bullet wound from the palm of his hand and through his middle finger.

According to deputies, he will be discharged late Wednesday.

Upon interviewing the victim, he stated his wife confronted him over money he owed.

A verbal altercation occurred, and she then brandished a black pistol before allegedly shooting her husband.

LCSO then stated that the accused called her mother, shouting, “I just shot Todd!”

He then ran from the scene, hiding inside his truck down the street from the shooting location to call law enforcement.

His wife was then arrested and is being charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.

Chrisp’s first court appearance will be at 10 a.m. on Wednesday.
