BIRMINGHAM — Jefferson County sheriff’s deputies responded to a report of a female being shot at the 200 block of Woodmere Creek Lane around 2 a.m. this morning according to a release from the department.
A 39-year-old woman said she was approached while sitting in her car by two white males. One of the suspects approached the driver’s side door while the other approached the passenger side. The suspects attempted to open the car doors, but they were locked. One of the men attempted to break the glass with a handgun, but when he could not, he fired a shot into the car. The woman then began honking her car horn to draw attention.
The victim was hit by a bullet fragment and was transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. She was treated and released.
