A woman has been charged with attempted murder after police say she shot her 13-year-old daughter in Seat Pleasant, Maryland.
Officers found the girl suffering from a gunshot wound to her neck at a home in 500 block of 69th Place just before 5 p.m. on Monday.
While giving her first aid, the officers asked the girl about what happened, and she said she had just been shot after getting home from school, according to court documents.
The girl later told police at the hospital that she and her mother got into an argument when she came home from school that turned physical.
After the fight, the girl started to walk down the stairs at the home, when she heard a gunshot and fell to the bottom of the stairs and was unable to move, charging documents say. Her mother then told her to say she was shot by someone who broke into the home, the girl told police.
The girl's mother, 32-year-old Talecka Brown, initially told police that a person experiencing homelessness shot her daughter and that she was already bleeding when she came home from school, according to police dispatch audio.
