Young woman shot in her car in Lady Lake near Fruitland park.
 

This morning's Daily Sun had an article about a shooting yesterday morning around 8:00 at the intersection of Lake Ella Road and April Hills Boulevard in Lady Lake.

Two young men approached the car and shot the 24 year old woman in the shoulder. She was airlifted to Ocala. Her four year old was in the car with her. The victim did not know the suspects. A drawing was released of one of them, a white male with spiked "two color" blond hair and dark eyebrows, one eyebrow with unusal razor cutting design through it.

The police said "they believe the victim was targeted."

The child was not harmed and is staying with relatives and no burglary occured.

This area is near 466a and 441/27

Saw that on Fox News last night.
 

The article also said that it is believed this was not a random shooting but that the lady was targeted.

Yes, that is what was said, but saying it does not necessarily make it true. There's not enough information provided in the article to know for sure whether it was targeted, a robbery attempt, or some random act of violence. Perhaps the authorities prefer labeling it as a targeted attack, to quell public fear.

Isn't it obvious to anyone else?

Perhaps a drug deal gone wrong....:shrug:

Not enough information yet. This could have been someone high on some kind of drug as well. Could have been a failed carjacking. Maybe, they did not see the kid in the car at first.

No, I'm not getting it.

I would go with the probability of a former boyfriend being the one wanting to do harm to the lady. The article did not mention a husband but stated the child is now staying with relatives.

Even though it happened just a very short distance from The Villages, I am not going to start feeling like this is an unsafe place to live. I am still going to be taking midnight walks - hope the coyotes don't get me! Personally, I am more concerned about the pack of cougars around Katie Belle's.

Story of my life

Like to meet some of them. :a20:

The Villages is so big now that this part of Lady Lake is a sizable distance from all the neighborhoods near and/or north of CR466.

The Villages is the safest area I have lived in by far.

Boyfriend,Father of child. Drug deal, Carjacking? Hold-up, any of the above. Happens everyday somewhere.

You forgot mistaken identity.

Post #1 clearly states "the victim did not know the shooter". This would rule out a few of your suggestions.

Or they know details they're not ready to release to the public because it will help in prosecution when they get them.
