CHINA GROVE — Two teenagers and others were cited for damaging property after they fired guns Saturday in a China Grove farm field this weekend.

The Rowan County Sheriff’s Office issued citations to Jose Antonia Rodriguez Estrada, 18, of Salisbury, for simple possession of marijuana, and Elvin Lopez Pacheco, 17, also of Salisbury, for simple possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Erika Bridgeth Gonzalez, 21, of Charlotte, and Manyary Lisbeth Parades Valejo, 19, of Mint Hill, were cited for misdemeanor damage to land.

Rowan County deputies were in the area when they heard shots being fired in the direction of Weaver Road. The deputies found a group of about 10 or more people in a field and heard someone yell “cops.”

Two people took off running. Deputies used a K-9 unit to track them, but they were not found.

A large number of people stayed behind. Deputies noticed a white Jeep stuck in the mud and bullet casings from a 22-caliber rifle on the ground near a Toyota.

Pacheco told deputies the group had permission from a friend to be on the property to shoot at bottles. He said the group arrived at 2:30 p.m.

Deputies searched a Lexus parked in the field and found two tubes of marijuana in the center console.

Deputies found 2 grams of marijuana in a metal tin inside a backpack in a vehicle that Pacheco was driving.

The vehicle got stuck when the teens decided to “go mudding,” said Capt. John Sifford.
