Officers were called to a report of a shooting shortly after midnight at Century Dr. between Harvester and South Service roads on Monday.
Police say multiple rounds were fired at the victim’s vehicle and one struck her head. The woman was immediately taken to hospital and is in serious but stable condition.
Investigators say the victim was shot when she was exiting the private parking lot of The Playground Global, a gym that hosts recreational basketball games.

Investigators say there were two other individuals inside the same vehicle as the woman.
