A Sedalia woman charged with multiple felonies after authorities responded to the report of shots fired on May 17 has a court proceeding scheduled.

A news release says Sedalia Police officers responded to the 2500 block of East 9th Street, and a 57-year-old man told authorities he had been shot at multiple times by another person he knew.

When officers arrived, they say the suspect was no longer shooting and had barricaded herself inside the residence. Officers were able to de-escalate the situation, and Victoria Mae McWilliams was arrested and transported to the Pettis County Jail.

Although not injured, authorities say the victim did have a bullet hole in his shirt.

According to court documents, McWilliams is charged with felonies for discharging a firearm at a person, domestic assault in the first degree and armed criminal action. Bond remains at $250,000 cash or surety.

McWilliams was arraigned on May 23. Her counsel-status hearing is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 7, at Pettis County Circuit Court.
