A man is under arrest after he allegedly shot a 50-year-old woman in the stomach on Sunday at her home in Northampton, Massachusetts.
Northampton police received a call at 8:30 a.m. Sunday from a woman saying she had been shot in the stomach and left her home on Pencasal Drive in the village of Florence, the Northwestern District Attorney’s Office said in a release. She told police a man remained inside the house with a gun.
