Police reported that a woman in Kentucky enlisted help to shoot a stranger at a Wendy’s after an argument erupted regarding her dog that had gotten loose from its leash.

Carrington Bagwell, 23, was taken into custody on Monday as part of the investigation into the January shooting, according to the Louisville Metro Police Department in a Facebook post. Local CBS affiliate WLKY noted that during her arraignment on Tuesday, her charges were elevated from second-degree complicity assault to first-degree assault.

Police say Bagwell instructed 41-year-old Gary Ross, who was arrested on May 6, to accompany her to a Wendy’s in Louisville on Jan. 4 and shoot a stranger with whom she had recently argued over her dog.

According to Louisville police, officers responded to the shooting that afternoon and found the alleged victim — a man in his 20s — with gunshot wounds to his arm and buttocks. The injuries were not life-threatening, and he was taken to the hospital for treatment. He was expected to recover.

Police said in their arresting documents that Bagwell and her accomplice were identified after viewing surveillance video and interviewing witnesses. According to the Louisville police, the alleged victim had been arguing with another male in the parking lot of the Wendy’s when the verbal altercation became physical and he was shot, allegedly by Ross. Police said the suspect fled the scene before officers arrived.

Court documents obtained by WKLY and local NBC affiliate WAVE stated that the conflict began earlier that day, when an argument erupted between Bagwell and the alleged victim. The documents said that Bagwell’s dog got loose, and as she tried to regain control of the dog, she and the alleged victim had a verbal argument.
