HUTCHINSON — A Kansas woman charged with three counts of attempted murder in the second degree and criminal discharge of a firearm is expected in court Wednesday for a preliminary hearing.

Nicole Renee Green, 35, was arrested on February 21, when Hutchinson Police were dispatched to Midas Muffler and Brake Shop at 1101 N. Lorraine after a vehicle struck the building.

The occupants of the vehicle, 28-year-old Daniel Newburn, 42-year-old Stacey Plantz and 39-year-old Michael Beason, reported they were at Walmart and were confronted by Green in the parking lot.

After a brief argument, they left the parking lot and drove south on K-61. Green followed them in her vehicle and repeatedly shot at their vehicle until they eventually ended up on North Lorraine and crashed the vehicle into the southwest side of the Midas shop.

Green left the scene and later turned herself in at the Reno County Law Enforcement Center.
