SALT LAKE CITY — A Uintah County woman accused of shooting at two people outside a home in Salt Lake City is now facing both state and federal charges.

The shooting comes 10 years after Lisa Ann Egersdorf was arrested and later convicted of being the driver in a drive-by shooting that involved four teenagers, including her son.

Egersdorf, 46, of Fort Duchesne, was charged Thursday in 3rd District Court with two counts of aggravated assault and shooting in the direction of a person, third-degree felonies.

Egersdorf drove to a residence near 500 South and 800 West on April 26 about 10 a.m., "and she was immediately confrontational and was extremely upset about her car. (The resident) stated that after yelling at him, Egersdorf pulled out a handgun and fired it several times at him. (He) stated that none of the shots hit him but that he could 'feel the pressure' from the bullets passing next to him," according to charging documents.

Another woman who was outside the house told police she, too, was almost hit by one of the shots. Officers found a bullet hole in the rear bumper of the woman's car, the charges state.

Detectives reviewed surveillance video "which showed a back seat passenger in (a) truck … reaches in between the door and the B pillar of the truck and fires four rounds from a handgun. The truck then speeds off," according to the charges.

On Wednesday, Egersdorf was also charged in federal court with two counts of unlawful transportation of firearms and receiving a stolen gun. She is listed in her federal complaint as Lisa Ann Corriz.

Federal charges filed against her further describe that she "began yelling at (the two victims) from the back seat of the truck. After a short exchange between Corriz and the victims, Corriz produced a handgun and fired four shots at the victims, who were in close proximity to the truck. Although neither victim was struck, both indicated they were nearly hit."

In 2014, Egersdorf drove her son and three other teenagers to a 7-Eleven, 500 E. 3900 South, where her son fired six rounds at another group of boys they had fought with earlier in the day at school, according to charging documents. She was convicted in 2015 of aggravated assault and illegal shooting of a gun. A prison term of one to 15 years was suspended and she was ordered to serve a year in jail with credit given for the 207 days she had already spent behind bars and was placed on three years of probation.
