Ending days of speculation, Clayton County Sheriff Victor Hill was arrested Wednesday for his role in a shooting that critically wounded a woman inside a model home.

But Hill again kept mum, declining to talk to Gwinnett County police about what happened Sunday night inside a Lawrenceville-area model home. At 5 p.m. Wednesday, an arrest warrant was issued for Hill and his attorney was contacted, Cpl. Deon Washington said.
Hill, 50, of Rex, surrendered and was charged with reckless conduct, a misdemeanor, and booked into the Gwinnett County jail at 7:48 p.m., booking records showed. At 8:38 p.m., Hill was released from jail after posting $2,950 bond and was seen leaving the jail in a black SUV.

The arrest comes three days after Hill allegedly shot Gwenevere McCord, 43, of Jonesboro, who was working Sunday night as a Paran Realty agent. Hill and McCord were the only two people inside the 3,800-square-foot home on Britt Trail Drive when when McCord was shot in the abdomen.
