A south Fulton County woman was shot late Thursday night by intruders who broke into her home near Fairburn, police said.
Fulton County police said the home invasion and shooting happened just before midnight Thursday in the 4900 block of Estonian Drive.
The victim, who was home alone, heard the intruders breaking in, called 911 and hid somewhere in the house, but the burglars found her and shot her, police said.
The woman, identified as Milissa Burke, 54, was taken to Atlanta Medical Center in stable condition.
The burglars took several items from the home and fled in a stolen Honda, which police later found abandoned nearby.
