Edmonson Voice Staff Report:
A Rocky Hill woman has been arrested and charged with multiple felonies, including attempted murder, after a shooting occurred on Saturday night, according to a press release from the Edmonson County Sheriff's Office.

Officials reported that at approximately 7:00 pm on Saturday, November 16, 2019, deputies were dispatched to 265 Goldenrod Lane off of Crump Road for a possible shooting. The Sheriff's office reported that dispatch received a call from Sandra Fabyan (59), who stated she had shot at her neighbor and was not supposed to be in possession of a firearm. Deputies said that after their arrival, Fabyan stated she had shot at her female neighbor after Fabyan had found the neighbor knocking on a door to the main floor of the house, which Fabyan told deputies the neighbor had entered through a partially opened garage door.

When deputies asked if the neighbor had been wounded, Fabyan allegedly stated she did not know. The sheriff's office said that it was later determined as the neighbor was knocking and shouting for Fabyan to come to the door, she had not made any threats of violence against Fabyan.

Fabyan then told deputies that she was a convicted felon for methamphetamine charges out of Colorado and that she knew she wasn’t supposed to have a gun, according to the press release. Deputies soon confirmed a felony arrest for “dangerous drugs,” along with burglary and contraband inside a jail/prison, and inside Fabyan’s house, deputies found a single action 22 Revolver, according to the release.

Deputies said their investigation revealed the female involved in the shooting incident at Fabyan’s house had gone by personal vehicle to TJ Sampson Hospital for a gunshot wound to the abdomen. The victim was later flown to U. of L. Hospital. Deputies said in an interview with the victim, she stated that she thought Fabyan had shot at her 5 or 6 times and that one of the shots had hit her vehicle. Upon inspection of the victim’s vehicle, deputies reportedly found a bullet hole in the front windshield.
