Augusta man said he was ‘sitting in a field’ when he was shot. Here’s what police found

Kidnapping charges face a 35-year-old Augusta man after a woman shot him in the arm.

Quentin Price, of the 900 block of Wrightsboro Road, told Richmond County Sheriff’s Office investigators that at about 12:30 a.m. Thursday in the emergency room at Wellstar MCG Health that “he was shot by an unknown person while sitting in a field,” according to the RCSO.

Officers then learned of a domestic violence call that occurred earlier on the 3100 block of Blackmon Court, the female victim’s residence.

Armed with a gun, investigators say, Price tried to force his way into the woman’s bedroom in which she locked herself. Finding her own gun, she fired through the closed door and hit Price in the upper arm before he fled.

Price has been charged with kidnapping; false imprisonment; terroristic threats and acts; possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime; and, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
