A 20-year-old Naperville woman was shot Sunday night outside a home on Aurora’s East Side, according to police.
About 11:20 p.m. Sunday, the woman and another woman her age from Lisle were walking up the driveway to a home in the 900 block of Fenton Street when someone fired shots, apparently from a dark-colored sedan, and one struck her, according to a statement the police department shared on its Facebook page.
The woman suffered a single gunshot wound that was not life-threatening and was taken to an Aurora hospital by an undisclosed third party, according to police.
In the statement, police said they have not ruled out gang motivation.
Police further described the car the shooter was in as possibly a Honda Accord, with tinted windows. More than one person was inside the car, police spokesman Dan Ferrelli said in an email.
The house and two vehicles parked in the driveway, including one belonging to the woman who was shot, were also struck by gunfire, Ferrelli said. No damage estimate was available, he said.
