PRINEVILLE, Ore. (AP) — A 45-year-old Prineville woman has been charged with attempted murder after a man was shot in the face with a rifle.

The Bulletin newspaper reported that Tommi Jo Harmon is accused of shooting 48-year-old Timothy Peel in the right cheek with a .22-caliber rifle from close range after a domestic dispute last Friday night.

Crook County sheriff’s deputies arrested Harmon without incident during what was described as a “high-risk” traffic stop in Prineville.

Harmon was also charged with assault, reckless endangering, pointing a firearm at another, driving under the influence of intoxicants, driving while suspended and tampering with evidence.

Peel was released from Pioneer Memorial Hospital on Sunday.
