SALISBURY — A woman was shot in her kitchen early Wednesday morning and was transported to Winston-Salem with non-life-threatening injuries.

When officers arrived, the victim was reportedly “alert and conscious,” and was able to relate the account to investigators before she was transported by ambulance to Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist in Winston-Salem. 

Evidence gathered at the scene indicated shots were fired from outside of the home as damage was incurred to the back door. 

The residence is in an apartment complex but sits on the perimeter.
