FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): Police in Fort Wayne are investigating a Saturday Morning shooting which has left one woman in life threatening condition. It happened around 2 A.M. Saturday as police were called to the 1800 block of Pontiac Street on reports of a shooting. When they arrived, they found an adult female victim suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. The victim was transported to a local hospital and is reported as being in life threatening condition.
Police determined that the shooting took place at the intersection of Anthony Blvd & Oxford St, while the victim was inside a vehicle stopped at a red light. Shots were fired from another vehicle striking the vehicle that the victim was inside.
