Cops: Teen Fired Her Parents' Gun at Gas Station Fight

CUMMING, GA -- A Roswell teenager has been arrested after authorities say she fired a gun she took from her parents during a pre-arranged fight at a Forsyth County gas station.

Tabitha Abigayle Smith, 18, was arrested Wednesday in Fulton County, according to the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies had obtained a warrant for her in connection with an incident January 23 at the Shell gas station on McFarland Parkway, just off of Ga. 400.

Smith had come to the gas station to fight a 19-year-old from Roswell, deputies say. The fight happened at about 5 p.m. and a store clerk and another witness told deputies they heard a gunshot.

No one was injured in the shooting.

The weapon -- a S&W Shield 9mm handgun -- was taken from Smith before she left the scene of the fight, the sheriff’s office said. Her parents had reported the handgun missing at about 2:30 p.m. that same day.

The victim told police there that, earlier in the day, Smith had come to her home and fired a shot at her car.

Smith was released from Fulton County Jail Wednesday night after posting $7,500 bond on a theft by taking charge. She was then taken to Forsyth County Jail, where bond was set at $11,715.
