She was taken to a nearby hospital, where DiSanto said, she was immediately taken in for surgery. On Monday morning, officials said she was placed in stable condition.
However, he said, officers at the scene learned the individual suspected to have fired at the woman was still in the property on the second floor.
Police believe, DiSanto said, the shooting happened over the course of an argument about loud music and the suspected shooter, a 30-year-old man, fired down a stairwell in the property at the woman who was injured in this incident.
