GASTONIA, N.C. (WBTV) - A woman was seriously injured following an officer-involved shooting in Gaston County late Sunday night.
According to the Gastonia Police Department, officers were looking for Jarvis Lynn in the area of Gray Street around 11:30 p.m. A warrant states officers received a call about a noise disturbance in the area. Police said Lynn had a pistol at the time of the shooting.
That's when officers shot Lynn's sister, in an attempt to shoot Lynn, officials say.
Gaston County EMS said the woman was taken to CaroMont Regional Medical Center with life-threatening injuries but, police say, she has since been released from the hospital.
The N.C. State Bureau of Investigation is investigating the shooting.

Lynn was charged with refusing to follow officer's commands, assault, breaking and entering, larceny and damaging property. He had previously been convicted in 2011 on drug charges.Good thing his sister didn't die. They'd have charged him with murder.

I’d bet serious money the sister was interfering with the arrest process.
Screeching and screaming at the cops: “HE DINDU NUFFIN. HE DINDU NUFFIN!”

Don’t you mean “peacefully” screeching and screaming? The article is definitely written with the intent to foment unrest.

The brother probably told the cops to get an amber-lamps, for dear Sis.

"... the woman was taken to CaroMont Regional Medical Center with life-threatening injuries but, police say, she has since been released from the hospital..." This happened last night.
"Life-threatening injuries" must be different in that neck of the woods from what we have here.

Nice shooting officers! What would happen to us ordinary concealed carriers if we shot the wrong one?

Gastonia was it’s own insane place back in the 90’s when we lived in Tega Cay, in neighboring county. Mostly crazy white trash. Now it’s all inclusive.

Need to go someplace where the police hit their target. Cops miss the target a lot
Best advice don’t stand next to someone being shot at
