Dothan, ALABAMA – According to the police officials, the 35-year-old woman was arrested and taken into custody on Thursday, July 22, 2022.

Her name is Shakita Crittenton and she is now charged with two counts of first-degree attempted assault, one count of discharging a firearm into an occupied vehicle, two counts of chemical endangerment, and two counts of animal cruelty.

Police say several juveniles were involved in a July 15 altercation in the 1200 block of Lake Street, and several juveniles left but returned later in a vehicle driven by Crittenton.

The juveniles then got out of the vehicle, retrieved a handgun from the trunk, and began firing at another vehicle while Crittenton watched, according to police.

Several charges resulted from Crittenton driving the juveniles to the scene and providing a weapon.

On Wednesday, investigators searched Crittenton’s residence under a search warrant, finding illegal narcotics in a common area accessible to two juveniles.

Two malnourished and underweight puppies found in crates in separate closets were turned over to Dothan Animal Services.
