JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A 78-year-old man is charged with armed aggravated assault and shooting into a car, as a result of a domestic dispute with his 31-year-old female roommate last night.
Ashley Holcomb and James Thomas O’Quinn got into an argument, and she decided to leave and called her husband, Sean Holcomb to come pick her up. He did, and as they were driving away, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office says O’Quinn fired one round from his shotgun, hitting Holcomb with several pellets.

O’Quinn surrendered, was taken in for questioning and booked into the County Jail.
