A nursing student from south King County is recovering from multiple gunshot wounds after surviving a suspected road rage shooting.
The victim wishes to stay anonymous, but her family spoke with FOX 13 News, detailing the terrifying moments before shots were fired.
The King County Sheriff's Office says a black Mercedes with dark tinted windows was driving aggressively, swerving in and out of traffic along S 272nd Street around 7:30 a.m. on Oct. 23. Ostrom says her daughter was shot multiple times and ended up crashing in front of the Carpinito Bros. Pumpkin Patch near S. 277th Street.
"The first shot went into the bumper of her car and the second shot went into her left arm and traveled down her arm, destroying her muscles, tendons and her bone," said Ostrom. "She's got plates and screws in her arms right now."Ostrom says her daughter will need at minimum six months to recover before she can even begin physical therapy.
