Grand Jury Indicts Woman Who Allegedly Shot Columbus Cop

Columbus Division of Police

A federal grand jury has indicted a Columbus woman on drug trafficking and weapons crimes. 

Prosecutors say 68-year-old Rita Gray shot and wounded a Columbus police officer in late May during a drug raid. Police were executing a search warrant at her home, where they found fentanyl, nine firearms, ammo and cash. Her son Eric has also been indicted on drug charges. 

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
