A heated argument on Facebook took a violent turn in Deltona late Tuesday night, leading to the arrest of a woman and a teenager after a vehicle was peppered with bullets.
According to the Volusia Sheriff’s Office, the conflict moved from the screen to the street when the victim drove to a residence on Hemingway Drive around 11:50 p.m. to confront a woman she had been arguing with online.
Upon her arrival, the victim told deputies she saw two people standing in the driveway, both armed with handguns. While no words were spoken, she reported seeing both individuals raise their weapons and open fire.
The victim witnessed muzzle flashes and heard multiple shots as her rear window shattered. After fleeing the scene, she realized her front passenger-side tire had also been shot out.

Law enforcement surrounded the home and spent several hours making announcements over a public address system. At approximately 5:30 a.m. Wednesday morning, 29-year-old Ines Jonjic, her children, and a 15-year-old babysitter, identified as Elijah Woodberry, surrendered to deputies.
Inside the garage, investigators discovered two different types of shell casings. Jonjic reportedly admitted to shooting at the vehicle, and deputies recovered her firearm from her bedroom. While Woodberry did not admit to firing a weapon, a second gun was not immediately found. Both Jonjic and Woodberry were charged with shooting into an occupied vehicle.
The investigation led to further felony charges as detectives searched the property. Woodberry is facing charges of possession of a firearm by a delinquent, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, and cocaine trafficking after bags of drugs were found in a backpack in his room.
He was also charged with violating probation for breaking a court-ordered curfew.
