TAMPA - Hillsborough County deputies have identified the man they say shot his girlfriend in the neck Tuesday as Julian Lujan.
Deputies responded to 2010 51st St., Tampa, about 5:40 p.m. and found Ranaye Donnelly, 50, with a gunshot wound in her neck, authorities say. Deputies chased the suspected shooter, a 36-year-old Tampa man, on foot and caught him in the area of 48th and 19th streets, the sheriff's office said.
He initially didn't cooperate with investigators but later said shot her, deputies say. An arrest affidavit gave his name.
Lujan was charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and was booked into Orient Road Jail.
Donnelly was awake and alert when she was taken to Tampa General Hospital, sheriff's office spokeswoman Debbie Carter said.
Witnesses told deputies that Donnelly lives with Lujan and the two got into an argument earlier Tuesday evening. They have lived together as a family for about two years, according to the affidavit.
