According to the CSPD arrest report, 42 year old Khanh Phan recently purchased a handgun and ammunition that matched what was used to kill 51 year old Jeffrey Blankley. He was shot while driving his SUV in the Walmart parking lot, and the vehicle crashed into a former trampoline park building connected to Walmart.
The arrest report states Phan borrowed a friend’s vehicle and drove to the Walmart parking lot. The friend told officers Phan told him “he could pick up his car from Walmart and that she had just shot someone.”
Three days before the shooting, Phan was arrested on a charge of violating a criminal trespassing order by going to the victim’s apartment complex.
Phan was released from a hospital Wednesday after she was treated for undisclosed injuries. Then she was arrested and taken to jail.
Phan remains held in lieu of a $250,000 dollar bond on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
