MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A man is facing charges after he allegedly fired a shot in an apartment with six kids and two adults inside.
On Monday, officers responded to a shots fired call at an apartment complex in south Memphis. Once on the scene, the victim told police that her uncle, Victor Hill, pulled a gun on her, her six children and her husband.
According to reports, the argument started because of a missing wallet. Victor allegedly yelled, “Somebody gonna die,” before firing a shot into the victim’s ceiling. The victims then fled the home.
Memphis Police searched the apartments and found one shell casing in the living room and a bullet hole in the ceiling.
Victor was taken into custody, where he denied having the gun. He was charged with eight counts of Aggravated Assault, Convicted Felon in Possession of a Handgun, Domestic Assault-Bodily Harm and Possession of Firearm/Dangerous Felony.
He is set to appear in court Tuesday.
