Updated 10:45 a.m. June 10 with additional criminal history and  bond information

Charlotte Andrade, 20, has been charged with felony counts of deliberate homicide and attempted deliberate homicide.

She was booked into the Cascade County Adult Detention Center around 6 p.m. June 9 on a $1 million bond.

She’s scheduled to make an initial appearance in district court on June 10.

Great Falls Police officers were dispatched to 1801 10th Ave. S. at 3:42 a.m. June 9 for reports of a disturbance.

A resident had called dispatch because two people were banging on his door at Unit 11. Officers checked the area but didn’t locate anyone, according to charging documents.

At 4:03 a.m. the resident called back reporting that people were again banging on his door and at the same time, another witness called saying two people were shot. The witness said one had been shot in the arm and the male was shot in the chest and was lying on the ground, according to charging documents.

Officers entered Unit 14 and made contact with Braden Walker, who had a gunshot wound to the left shoulder, according to court documents. Officers escorted Walker out then returned to speak to the two females inside the apartment.

One of the females told officers she was Darien Bickel’s girlfriend and Bickel was the male lying outside Unit 14.

They said the females had been on the west side of Unit 14 on the porch and Bickel and Walker had been walking around the unit.

The females told officers they heard three shots and saw Walker and Bickel running, with Walker running into the apartment, locking the door, and Bickel collapsed outside, according to court documents.

GFPD officials said Monday morning that the shooting had left one dead and another injured.

Officers were on site for hours handling the incident and processing the scene.

The females were “adamant that Charlotte Andrade was the shooter, but did not see her,” according to court documents, since there had been recent issues with her and the initial caller, Takoda Bigknife, who reported people banging on his door at Unit 11.

Bigknife had called into dispatch again and was advised to come out with his hands up. Two males exited Unit 11 and were taken into custody. The females from Unit 14 were taken to the GFPD for interviews, according to court documents.

The males told officers there was no one else in Unit 11, but at 6:40 a.m. Andrade and another male exited the unit, according to charging documents.

Through interviews with the four occupants of the unit, there were differing accounts of what occurred and where the shots came from.

Eventually, Andrade admitted to shooting the two males from the upstairs window and occupants of Unit 11 said the gun was hidden under the living room couch.

Several of the occupants told law enforcement that they saw, or thought they saw, at least one of the victim’s with a gun on them, according to charging documents.

Andrade was charged with accountability to deliberate homicide in 2023 in connection with the stabbing death of Tammey McWilliams, 51, near Chowen Springs Park.

Andrade was 18 at the time.

A jury found her not guilty in 2024.

At the time of the Phoenix Apartments shooting, there was a warrant for Andrade’s arrest in connection with a May 28 incident, in which she was charged with a felony count of criminal endangerment and a misdemeanor count of criminal mischief.

According to charging documents, Andrade and two males approached the victim on foot while she was at the gas pump.

Andrade told the victim and her friends to leave and a verbal argument ensued, with the victim and her friends getting into her vehicle to leave, but the victim got back out and continued the argument, according to court documents.

Andrade allegedly pulled out a BB gun and shot at the victim’s vehicle twice, causing damage, then pointed it at the victim’s face from four or five feet away and shot the victim in the face, according to charging documents.

In 2022, Bickel was charged with six counts of criminal endangerment for discharging a firearm at the building of 719 8th Street North, then walking away.

Bickel had been given a deferred sentence but an arrest warrant was issued in his case in April, according to court records.
