Witnesses told officers that a woman was seen running toward a residence and firing several shots behind her.
An officer spoke with the woman, who said she was outside when a white male approached her and attempted to rob her, according to police.
The woman said the man pulled a gun on her and fired a single shot, then she pulled her gun and returned fire numerous times, according to the release.
No injuries were reported.
The woman was arrested on an unrelated warrant, police said.
