Police: Murder Charges For Woman Who Shot Boyfriend While He Was Driving
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - There has been an arrest in the death of a Mount Airy man who was discovered in an overturned SUV with a gunshot wound to his head Tuesday.
Philadelphia homicide investigators say Martina Wescott had been arguing with her boyfriend, 33-year-old Terrell Bruce. They were in a Ford Expedition, with Bruce behind the wheel.
That's when police say Wescott shot him. The SUV then crashed into a Subaru.
This happened on the 500 block of West Walnut Lane in Germantown around 12:30 p.m.
When police and medics arrived, it appeared to just be a bad crash. But medics saw that Bruce had a gunshot wound to his head.
Witnesses told police that a woman got out of the Expedition and ran across the Walnut Lane Bridge.
Police later arrested Wescott. Authorities say she's facing murder and gun charges.
