A Fayetteville man pled guilty this morning to shooting a Gwinnett woman and a Fayetteville policeman in August 2006.

Jarrod Michael Gooden, of Byington Drive, was sentenced to 40 years in prison by Fayette Superior Court Judge Johnnie L. Caldwel Jr.

Caldwell said he wished he could have sentenced Gooden to another 30 years based on the fact that he shot at Fayetteville officer Kevin Ingram during the incident. Officers said Ingram may have been grazed by a bullet judging by an ear injury.

Police said Gooden opened fire on the victim, striking her several times and then shot at Ingram as he exited his patrol car.

Ingram had just pulled into the parking lot at Crumpton's Furniture after noticing Gooden and the woman on foot around 3 a.m. well after businesses in the area has closed.
