G-ville woman shoots 600-pound boyfriend



Jennie Jones told police that she shot her boyfriend, but for now, he is the one who will face charges.



Jones said she shot her boyfriend, Sharka Corbin, twice Sunday after he beat her inside her home at 735 S. Washington Ave. According to police, Corbin weighs about 600 pounds.



Jones was transported to Delta Regional Medical Center for severe swelling to the face and her right eye was swollen.



Jones said Corbin beat her up after he learned that she got a traffic ticket in Arkansas and that her car had been towed. She said he put the gun to her head and said, "I am going to kill you." But instead of shooting her he put the gun on the dresser and then began hitting her, according to reports.



Jones was able to get the gun and fired several shots at Corbin. Two of the bullets hit Corbin, one in the leg and one in the chest.



Corbin is charged with domestic assault with medical attention. The case against Jones will be sent to the District Attorney office for possible grand jury review.
