An enraged Florida woman was arrested and charged with murder over the weekend after allegedly tracking down her boyfriend during a late-night meetup with another woman and opening fire on a vehicle.
Katherine Dale Kelly, 24, of Cocoa, told investigators she was trying to “make a point” after believing her boyfriend, Elijah Baker, was cheating on her again, according to a police report obtained by the Space Coast Daily.
She was charged with attempted first-degree murder, aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, firing a gun into a vehicle and using a firearm while committing a felony, according to the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office.

The confrontation happened in the early hours of Saturday in Port St. John, according to the outlet.
Baker reportedly drove Kelly’s Volkswagen to pick up the victim, Angel Adenau, at approximately 1:20 a.m.
Kelly then tracked Baker’s location and took an Uber to the area.
She then approached the passenger side of the vehicle and fired one round through the window, striking Adenau in the left shoulder, Space Coast Daily reported.
Following the shooting, Baker rushed Adenau to her residence, where emergency assistance was requested. Adenau was subsequently transported to a local hospital for treatment.
