A 47-year-old woman was wounded Monday night after someone shot into her family’s apartment in the central valley.

The shooting was reported just before 10 p.m. Monday at the Casa Vegas Condos, 1405 Vegas Valley Drive, near Maryland Parkway, according to Metropolitan Police Lt. David Gordon.

The woman was inside her first-floor apartment with her husband and son when two women in their 20s jumped onto the patio, Gordon said. They fired several shots through the sliding glass door, striking the woman inside once in the chest.

She was hospitalized and is expected to survive, Gordon said.

He said the shooters fled the scene and are still at large.
