Arraignment was held Thursday morning in Christian District Court for the woman charged in an early-Wednesday morning shooting incident on East 18th Street.
Hopkinsville police allege 29-year old Taraneisha Quarles of Hopkinsville shot 45-year old David Powell four times with a pistol, causing injuries that sent him to Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Quarles, who lived in the same home with Powell, reportedly told police she shot him because she believed he was reaching for a bow.
Judge Foster Cotthoff entered a not guilty plea to the first-degree assault charge on her behalf and appointed her a public defender.
The judge left bond at $250,000 and scheduled a preliminary hearing for Friday of next week.
