Warner Robins woman suffers gunshot to neck; four arrested

WARNER ROBINS, Ga. — Warner Robins Police Department personnel were dispatched to a shots fired call at the Randall Heights Apartments, 306 Elberta Road in Warner Robins, in the early morning hours Sunday.

Responding officers met with Tanyla Miller, 19, of Warner Robins, who was “conscious-alert and breathing.” EMS transported Miller to Atrium-Navicent in Macon, where she, at the time of press, is in serious but stable condition.

“[The] victim was in her apartment asleep when an incident between unknown subjects and numbers of subjects had an altercation where shots were fired,” the initial release stated. “Evidence on scene indicates the events that took place were from near the roadway and outer property of the apartment complex. Multiple other apartments were struck in the process of the shooting.”

Later on Sunday, WRPD arrested four related to this incident. Two Black male juveniles from Warner Robins, ages 14 and 16, as well as Elijah Jauquan Brinson, 20, of Macon, and Tyquavious Crowder, 18, of Macon, were arrested in relation to the altercation and shooting.

Investigators found that the incident in question was in retaliation to a previous one, and “the intended target has ties to the apartment the victim lives in.”

Det. Dokes of the Warner Robins Police Department is serving as lead investigator on the case, and can be contacted at (478) 303-5380. Anyone with information can also call Macon Regional Crimestoppers at (478) 742-2330.
