81-year-old shoots, kills great-grandson’s father

? Police say an 81-year-old woman shot the father of her great-grandson at point-blank range.

Alex Reyes, 26, was shot while picking up his 18-month-old son for a supervised court visit, said Jim Amormino, a spokesman for the Orange County Sheriff’s Department.

Witnesses reported that Reyes appeared to be having a casual conversation with his ex-wife and her grandmother, Jeane Ellen Allen, on the front porch of their home, when Allen allegedly pulled out a gun and fired, said Amormino.

“There was no argument,” he said. “She just pulled the gun out and started firing.”

Reyes was shot in the hip and the head and died at a hospital, said sheriff’s department Lt. Ted Boyne.

Allen was arrested for investigation of attempted murder and was being held in lieu of $500,000 bail. She likely will be charged with murder, Boyne said.
