Woman arraigned in fatal shooting of Flint security guard over face mask
FLINT, MI -- One of three suspects in the May 1 shooting death of a security guard at Family Dollar in Flint has appeared in court on a charge of murder.
Appearing on a TV screen and clad in a cloth mask, Sharmel L. Teague, 45, of Flint, was arraigned Tuesday, May 5, 2020 by Genesee District Judge Nathaniel C. Perry on first-degree murder and felony firearm charges.
The charges stem from the May 1, 2020 shooting death of 43-year-old Calvin James Munerlyn.
A security guard at the Family Dollar off East Fifth Avenue in Flint, Munerlyn was shot around 1:45 p.m. May 1 allegedly following a dispute over a customer not wearing a mask into the store.
It’s alleged Teague and Munerlyn got into a verbal dispute after he told the woman’s daughter she needed to wear a face mask while inside the store.

The woman’s daughter then left the store, but her mother began to yell at Munerlyn. He told the mother to leave the store and instructed a cashier not to serve her, according to investigative reports of the incident turned over to Genesee County Prosecutor David Leyton.
During a May 4 press conference, Leyton said there is video surveillance of the altercation between Teague and Munerlyn.
A short time later, Teague returned to the store with her 44-year-old husband and her 23-year-old son and confronted Munerlyn.
Leyton pointed out the wife called the husband between leaving in a red GMC Envoy to River Village Apartments and coming back to the store 20 minutes later with two men who came inside the store.
The 44-year-old man yelled at Munerlyn about disrespecting his wife, with the 23-year-old man accused of pulling out a gun and shooting Munerlyn in the back of the head, Leyton said.
Munerlyn was transported to Hurley Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead a short time later.
Leyton has announced murder and felony firearm charges against the two men, but they are still being sought by police.
As of late Tuesday morning, Michigan State Police Lt. David Kaiser said the men are not in custody.

The men are being sought by the Michigan State Police fugitive team. Leyton warned anyone helping the pair evade enforcement may also be charged with a crime.

“They must know that they’re being sought. They are armed and dangerous,” he said. “We will bring them to justice.”
Anyone with information on their whereabouts is asked to call 911 or report a tip anonymously to Crime Stoppers of Flint & Genesee County at at 1-800-422-5245, use the P3TIPS mobile app, or visit CrimeStoppersofFlint.com.
