SUN PRAIRIE, Wis. (WFRV) – A 23-year-old woman was arrested Tuesday afternoon after a domestic disturbance led to a gunshot being fired in a Sun Prairie neighborhood.
The Sun Prairie Police Department says it received multiple calls around noon reporting a gunshot in the 300 block of Sweet Grass Drive.

An initial investigation found that two individuals who knew each other had been arguing on social media. One of the individuals reportedly went to the other’s residence, where the dispute continued outside.
During the confrontation, the suspect allegedly fired a single round. No one was struck by the bullet, and no property damage was located.
Authorities say the suspect left the scene and was later stopped by the Dane County Sheriff’s Office in Madison.
Sania L. Alexander, 23, of Madison, reportedly admitted to firing the shot and was arrested on charges of first-degree recklessly endangering safety, possession of a firearm by an adjudicated delinquent, and receiving a stolen firearm.
“Any time a shooting occurs, its effect and harm on a neighborhood have drastic impacts,” said Sun Prairie Police Chief Kevin Warych. “We are committed to removing this harm from our neighborhoods to maintain peace and safety for all our residents.”
