A woman shot at a man who she said tried to force his way into her Mission Valley condominium to sexually assault her Wednesday, San Diego police said.

The woman told officers she fired at the man when he tried to get into her Friars Road home near Fashion Valley about 12:15 p.m, said police Officer Frank Cali. Police found a bullet lodged in one of the condominium’s walls and checked the adjacent unit to make sure no one was hurt.

Detectives weren’t able to get a clear statement from the woman, sex crimes Lt. Sandra Rapalii-Albrektsen said. The incident is still under investigation.
