It happened at a duplex on Bob-O-Link Drive around 12:45 Saturday morning.

LEX18 was told that the bullet hit the woman, then went through the wall into the duplex next door, and hit a second woman.

Both were taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Police say the suspect took off and so far, they do not have a good description of him.
