TPD: As car pulls into gas station, woman struck by gunfire; faces life-threatening injuries

A woman was injured and taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries after a shooting early Friday morning.

At around 3 a.m., the woman was inside a car that pulled into the Marathon Gas station at 2259 W. Tennessee Street, according to the Tallahassee Police Department, when someone in the parking lot began firing multiple shots at the vehicle. The woman was hit and rushed to the hospital.

A TPD spokesperson said there was no evidence that a crowd was present at the gas station. For years, officers have grappled with so-called pop-up parties at gas stations and parking lots.

The spokesperson did not have any further updates, including whether the woman was the intended target of the shooting.
