HALEDON — A brother and sister are facing charges after police say an argument between the sister and a man whose vehicle she rear-ended earlier this month led to her brother shooting the man in the chest at point-blank range.

Police responded to 400 West Clinton Street on Tuesday, April 19, when they received reports of a shooting, Lt. George Guzman of the Haledon Police Department said in a news release.

At the scene, officers determined a 21-year-old borough resident had been shot at point-blank range in the chest while sitting in his vehicle.

An investigation determined that 38-year-old Natasha Payton and the man got into an argument when Payton struck his vehicle from behind.

Payton got out of her vehicle and approached the victim, still in the driver's seat. Payton then allegedly punched the victim in the face.

The man, whose name was not released, attempted to call police but Payton contacted her brother and told him to "come downstairs," police said. Charles Conley, 26, emerged and shot the victim at point-blank range in his chest. The two then fled the scene.

The man was transported to St. Joseph's Medical Center by private vehicle after the shooting. He is currently listed in stable condition, Guzman said.

On Monday, police arrested Conley and Payton at work.

Conley was charged with first-degree attempted murder, second-degree aggravated assault and other gun related charges. His bail was set at $750,000 with no 10-percent option.

Payton was charged with second-degree aggravated assault. Payton's bail was set at $100,000 with no 10-percent option. The siblings were lodged in Passaic County Jail in lieu of bail.

Guzman said the Passaic County Prosecutor's Office assisted Haledon Police in the investigation.
