Woman Arrested In Nearby Valencia For Domestic Violence-Related Shooting

SOLANO COUNTY, CA -- A Vallejo woman involved in a domestic argument was arrested for attempted murder Sunday morning, a Vallejo police lieutenant said.

Rosa Ector, 45, was arrested March 26 for the attempted shooting murder of Tyrone Reed II, 25, of Richmond in the Marina Heights Apartment complex at 135 Carolina St. around 10 a.m., Lt. Herman Robinson said.

Police responded to a call about a woman waving a gun in the parking lot. They learned that Rosa Ector and her husband Charles Ector Jr., 54, went to the apartment complex near City Hall because their daughter was
involved in a domestic violence incident with Reed, Robinson said.

Rosa Ector then retrieved the handgun and shot Reed in the chest because she believed her husband was in danger, Robinson said.

The Ectors tried to flee in a Lincoln Continental but were detained, and Rosa was arrested for attempted murder and booked in the Solano County Jail, Robinson said.

Police recovered a handgun from the Lincoln Continental, Robinson said.

Reed was taken to a trauma center. His injuries are not believed to be life threatening, Robinson said.
