WOMAN SHOT BY PELLET GUN

Elyria – A trip home from a fun and relaxing day at Cedar Point turned ugly late Tuesday night after a woman was shot in the head with a pellet gun.

Carol Mack of Elyria said she was driving south on Lake Ave when she heard a couple “pop” noises. “At first I thought maybe I ran something over on the road then I heard them again and I looked over at my Mother in the passenger seat and she yelled and was holding her face.”

Mack stopped and pulled into the Shopway parking lot at Lake & Furnace Street to see what happened to her Mother. When Mack saw the blood she quickly called 9-1-1.

LifeCare Paramedics treated the victim at the scene and then transported her to Elyria Memorial Hospital for further treatment.

Mack told Police she saw two young males in the area run after her Mother was hit. Police questioned two juveniles in the area and searched around their home. The two youths were taken to the Police station for further questioning.
