MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- A man was arrested on Friday after Memphis Police say he shot at his ex-girlfriend's car after an argument earlier this month.
On October 3 at 11 a.m., deputies responded to an aggravated assault in the 5000 block of Blacksmith Drive.
Deputies spoke with a victim who told them that when she came home, she and her ex-boyfriend, Aaron Malone, got into a verbal altercation.

The victim said she told the suspect to leave and he replied, "If I leave, you'll be dead."
The victim said she attempted to get away from the situation and Malone pulled out a black handgun, raised it towards her and allegedly fired one round.
