Police said they responded to the call at the 2200 Block of Otis Street at 4:53 p.m. on Saturday.

When they arrived, they found a 40-year-old female who had been shot in her left calf.

Officers were told that the shooting occurred as a gold Lexus was being chased by a green Nissan Altima on Otis Street from Weaver Street.

A passenger in the Altima leaned out the window and fired several shots in the direction of the Lexus. One bullet struck the female and another struck a parked pickup truck.

The female was washing her car when she was wounded and she appears to have been an innocent bystander.

The Nissan is described as a dark green, 4-door, rounded body style early to mid-1990s model with North Carolina plates. It was occupied by two males.
