Police say the woman was at her River Valley home along Dump Road, Arima, around 2:30 am when she heard voices shouting, “Police!” Moments later, gunshots rang out and she felt burning sensations in her right thigh and left foot.

She was taken to hospital by ambulance, listed in stable condition, and later transferred to another facility.
