Miss Savannah charged with shooting boyfriend

Associated Press


SAVANNAH -- A Georgia beauty queen is accused of shooting her boyfriend, possibly during a fight over another woman, police said.

Miss Savannah Sharron Nicole Redmond, 21, was charged with aggravated assault after the Tuesday night incident and released on bail Wednesday. The charge could be upgraded to murder if the man she is accused of shooting, 25-year-old Kevin Shorter, dies, police said.

Shorter was listed in critical condition Thursday at Memorial Health University Medical Center, said hospital spokeswoman Sandy Griffin.

The circumstances of the shooting are still sketchy, but police said it occurred at a home belonging to the father of another woman Shorter was dating.

As Shorter left the home, he and Redmond started arguing, investigators said. Shorter was shot in the lower abdomen, and then he ran back into the house and collapsed.

Redmond fled the scene and was arrested later at her home, police said.

A high school teacher, Redmond graduated summa cum laude from Spelman College in Atlanta after completing a double major in English and pre-medicine in three years, according to the Miss Savannah Web site. She was in the process of getting her master's degree in education.

Redmond assumed the Miss Savannah title in August when Andrea Bailey -- who was originally crowned Miss Savannah -- won the title of Miss Georgia and went on to compete in the Miss America competition. Redmond also was pursuing a singing career.

Redmond couldn't immediately be reached for comment Thursday.
