Fight Between Two Women At A Home Leads To Shooting, RAW VIDEO- Mother In Critical Condition, Her Child Missing

A late-night argument between two women escalated into gunfire inside a Boynton Beach apartment, leaving one woman shot and triggering a multi-agency search for a missing child, according to police.

Justice Taneisha Guyton, 26, surrendered to the Boynton Beach Police Department on Thursday, hours after investigators say she shot 26-year-old La’Shay Lee during a physical altercation.

Guyton is charged with aggravated battery with a firearm and shooting into an occupied dwelling. She is being held at the Palm Beach County Jail on a $100,000 bond and has been ordered to have no contact with the victim.

Court records show her contact with her child is limited to phone calls, pending approval from the Florida Department of Children and Families.

On Friday, CBS12 News reporter Katie Bente spoke directly with Lee’s mother, Angelica Reyes, who described devastating injuries and an uncertain road ahead.

“She’s fighting for her life,” Reyes said. “She’s been hit multiple times with gunshot wounds in the arm. One of the bullets went to her side, to the kidney and then traveled to the spinal area.”

Reyes said doctors are closely monitoring Lee’s internal injuries and that her abdomen remains open as surgeons work to prevent further damage.

“Everything’s so critical right now,” Reyes said. “It’s a fight that we’re fighting for her life. There’s a possibility that that bullet could cause her to be paralyzed. We don’t know yet.”

Lee remains hospitalized in critical condition.
