DAYTON, Ohio —
The shooting happened Wednesday night on Euclid Avenue. Investigators said 90-year-old Louise Brooks was hit by two stray bullets while she was watching television inside her home.
On Thursday morning, detectives towed a car from Gulfview Drive that may have been involved in the shooting. They are looking into the possibility that glass found at the scene on Euclid Avenue may belong to the car.
Police said several homes and cars in the area were also struck by bullets. Investigators said they believe the shooting was a drive-by.
Officers said they found Brooks after no one answered her door. They said they forced their way in and found her with two gunshot wounds.
Police said Brooks was hit by bullets in both legs. Brooks was taken to Miami Valley Hospital, where she was listed in critical condition. Officials said her condition has been upgraded to fair.
