20-year-old Rachel Shaffer was jailed Wednesday evening after giving the police false identifying information. While officers were on the scene of a shooting on Sunset Circle, they attempted to identify Ms. Shaffer. She told them her name was Christian Phifer and gave a matching birthdate for whomever Ms. Phifer was. She advised that she gave the officers a different name because she was afraid she may have had warrants.
