New Haven County resident Patricia Curiale, age 50, of Milford, was arrested on Tuesday, June 6 after Milford Police officers responded to a report of shots fired.
When officers arrived at the home on W. Main Street, they found the victim uninjured. Police said the victim had been in the backyard when they heard a car alarm go off and spotted Curiale near the car.
