Woman threatens grandson after finding woman in wheelchair without care


YOUNGSTOWN

An 83-year-old woman pleaded not guilty in municipal court to charges she shot a gun in the air and threatened to kill her grandson.

Alma Revis of Browning Avenue remains free on a $5,000 bond after she was arraigned Thursday before Judge Robert Milich on charges of discharging a firearm within city limits and aggravated menacing, both first-degree misdemeanors.

Revis told officers she came to the home and found a woman there who was in a wheelchair and there was no one caring for her, which upset her.

Her grandson arrived at the home a short time later, and she pointed a gun at him and fired one shot into the air, reports said.

Reports said the grandson told police he left the woman in the wheelchair, his girlfriend’s mother, at the home with a friend, who later left.
