A woman was injured in a drive-by shooting Sunday while standing outside a home in a DeKalb County neighborhood, according to police.

Officers were called to the 6300 block of Laurel Post Drive, just outside the Redan area, and found the 20-year-old with a gunshot wound at about 10:40 p.m., police said.

The woman told the officers she was outside when several shots were fired from a passing vehicle, according to a statement from DeKalb police. She was taken to a hospital in serious condition.

No other details were released regarding the shooting, which remains under investigation. It was not clear if the woman was the intended target.
