BUTTE – A Butte woman pleaded guilty Thursday in district court to shooting at a bouncer in a local bar in 2017.

Court records show Sarah Baldwin, 32, pleaded guilty to felony counts of assault with a weapon and criminal endangerment.

Baldwin was arrested in November 2017 after she fired a handgun at a bouncer in the AcomaLounge after he told her to leave the bar.

The shot was so close that it went through the victim’s shirt but did not strike him.

Baldwin is free on bond.
