Arrest made in Red Bank shooting

Red Bank police arrested a woman Tuesday who they said helped a man shoot his ex-girlfriend.

Officers charged 29-year-old Tiajuana Jo Ann Dieffenderfer, of 4125 Kirkland Ave., with aggravated assault and two counts of attempted murder. She will appear in Red Bank Municipal Court on July 15.

Dieffenderfer’s arrest comes four days after police brought Antwan Lamar Jackson to Hamilton County Jail. Police said Jackson caught and shot his ex-girlfriend on July 4 after a car chase. Dieffenderfer allegedly drove Jackson.

On the night of the shooting, officers found Monica Branham in a Hardee’s on McCahill Road. She had been shot in the upper thigh or abdomen.
