A news alert from the department says officers responded to the intersection of County Road 81 and 85th Avenue North just before 2:40 a.m.

The victim reported being stopped at a red light when a vehicle pulled up next to hers and fired several rounds.

She was hit once in the leg, according to police, and her vehicle was also hit several times.

The woman was taken to the hospital for her injuries.
