An appeal for information has been issued by police after a woman was shot in Palmerston North.
Police were called to Tremaine Ave in Takaro around 7.30pm last Friday after reports of a firearm being discharged.
A woman was found in critical condition with injuries consistent with agunshot wound and was taken to hospital, where she remained in a serious but stable condition, a statement said today.
A scene examination was conducted with a scene guard placed on the address overnight on Friday.
Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Deegan said those involved were known to each other and there was no risk to the wider community.
“If you have any information that may assist in our investigation or witnessed the incident and have not yet reported it to us, please contact police on 105 either online or over the phone,” Deegan said.
“Please reference file number: 241213/7116.
“Alternatively, you can report any information anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
