Police arrested Terry Sanford Wood Sr. of Concord Heights Road and charged him with assault and battery with intent to kill. Gaffney Police Department investigators charged a 48-year-old man in connection with a shooting Sunday evening on Smith Street that sent a woman to the hospital.

Terry Sanford Wood Sr., of Concord Heights Road, was arrested on the charge of assault and battery with intent to kill and was being held at the Cherokee County Detention Center as of Tuesday afternoon. His bond was denied, according to jail records.

Wood is accused of shooting a firearm at a sport utility vehicle driven by a 46-year-old Gaffney woman. The woman told police she was driving west on Smith Street at about 7 p.m. when she saw Wood stopped at a stop sign at Smith and Liberty streets. She claimed Wood shot at her vehicle three times with a shotgun, the third shot shattering the rear window of her car.

One of the shots penetrated through the driver's seat of the woman's car, hitting her in her upper right back.

Following the shooting, the woman drove into the Walgreen's parking lot where help was called and police, firefighters and paramedics raced to the scene.

While the woman was examined by paramedics at the scene, she was taken to the hospital in a private vehicle.

The Gaffney Police Department reported that Cherokee County Sheriff's Office deputies located Wood at his home on Concord Heights Road and transported him to the Cherokee County Detention Center, where a Gaffney Police Department officer served him Sunday night with the arrest warrant.

Police said they found two yellow-colored 20-gauge shotgun shells in the road at Smith and Liberty streets and they also recovered a shotgun slug from a Poplar Street property.

According to a separate incident report, two residents of the 300 block of Poplar Street were watching television Sunday evening when they heard a loud "pop" outside. When they went to their door they found the glass broken out of their storm door and a dent in their front door. A shotgun slug was found on the sidewalk in front of their house.

Police did not indicate what might have sparked the shooting.
