Murder charges filed in shooting death BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com
A Booneville man faces a charge of murder after allegedly shooting a woman in the chest early Friday morning. James Erik Robinson, 26, of 500 Water Tank Road, Booneville, has been charged with murder in the
death of 23-year-old Andrea Nicole Fleming of Booneville. Prentiss County Sheriff Randy Tolar said Fleming was found dead of a single gunshot wound to the chest at a Water Tank Road residence by deputies and Booneville Police Department officers responding to a 911 call at the home. Authorities
were on the scene within four minutes of the call. Robinson was arrested at the scene and charged Friday afternoon after investigators worked through the night and early-morning hours. The weapon has been recovered along with further evidence, said the sheriff.
The suspect also faces a charge of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. He was on parole after being released from the custody of the Mississippi Department of Corrections in March. Bond had not been set late Friday afternoon.

Corinth streets will be packed today as 1,500 runners/walkers are entered in the 34th Annual Corinth Coca-Cola Classic.
