The White House staffer and former Capitol Hill aide arrested last month for allegedly shooting at her Capitol Police boyfriend was indicted Tuesday by Maryland authorities on charges of first-degree assault, according to Roll Call.

Prince George’s County State’s Attorney Angela Alsobrooks charged Barvetta Singletary with second-degree assault, reckless endangerment and the use of a handgun in connection with a violence crime.

Singletary after the arrest was put on unpaid leave from her job as special assistant to President Obama and as House legislative affairs liaison. She is free on a $15,000 bond, but her White House access has been revoked.

Singletary’s attorney, Rosalyn Pugh, was not immediately available for comment, according to Roll Call.

On Aug. 7 Singletary allegedly invited the officer, Reginald Cleveland, to her home. After he refused to answer Singletary’s question about another woman that he was dating or let her see his cell phones, Singletary allegedly reached inside his vehicle, taking two phones and his service weapon.

When Cleveland allegedly refused to give her the phone pass codes, Singletary allegedly fired one round toward him but missed.

(CNN)The White House staffer indicted for allegedly shooting at her Capitol Police officer boyfriend has resigned.

According to a White House official, Barvetta Singletary, 37, submitted her resignation effective Aug. 28. The White House accepted her resignation.

Singletary, a special assistant to the President and House legislative liaison, made headlines three weeks ago after she was arrested on charges of assault and reckless endangerment. Charging documents allege Singletary invited her officer boyfriend to her Maryland home, then confronted him about another woman. During the dispute, police said she took his service weapon and fired one round when he refused to give her the password to his phone. No one was injured.

Following the arrest, Singletary was temporarily placed on unpaid leave from the White House and had her access to the complex revoked.

She was indicted on assault charges Tuesday.
