A woman that was involved in a standoff in Marion last month that involved SWAT officers and was eventually injured in a gunfight was hit by a bullet fired from a police officer’s gun.
The woman was identified as 27-year old Samantha Holmes. Holmes had been friends with the man who held her hostage, Joshua Green, who was shot multiple times by police.
Marion Police officers that were involved in the standoff were placed on administrative leave, but have returned to work.
