MEMPHIS – Authorities say a Memphis police officer is being questioned in connection with a fatal shooting.

Shelby County sheriff’s spokesman Chip Washington says the officer was off-duty when she shot another woman during a domestic argument at a home early Wednesday.

Washington says the officer, 34-year-old Jaselyn Grant, fired several shots. The victim, 29-year-old Keara Crowder, was found by officers in the front yard, bleeding.

Crowder was taken to a hospital in critical condition. She died later Wednesday.

Washington says a 12-year-old boy who was in the home was not injured. No charges have been filed.
