From Nina0113:

Well I made it home okay but am still somewhat shaky. Thanks to everyone for their concern.

The last word I heard from the radio is, she was shot from the Pizza Hut parking lot, which is across 5 lanes of traffic & a median strip. Her minivan was in the first space in the parking lot, right across from the sidewalk. The parking lot is about 20 spaces wide. So with that kind of distance, & an exit wound, I don't think that could have been a handgun. I'm not a gun person, but maybe someone who is could confirm or reject that? They were still looking for the bullet last I heard.

What I saw:

I was just writing my check at the register, when an employee grabbed the intercom & told everyone to stay in the store. Someone said what happened, she said, someone told her a woman had been shot in the parking lot. Another employee was calling 911, LEOs & rescue got there, loaded her onto a stretcher & took her away. Her keys & her purse & her shopping were all laying on the ground behind the van. First they wouldn't let anybody leave the store, then they let us on the sidewalk so we all lit up. They taped off part of the parking lot & were only letting cars outside the tape leave.

Thank God your wife is OK.

Thanks for the eyewitness details. And hug your wife for me.

Bad time to bring it up....but you should consider becoming a "gun person".

I am very very happy for your family and that your wife is ok. My wife is a full time mom with children too and frequents the exposure of parking lots daily doing her business. This one strikes home to all of us.

G-d bless your family.
