CANTON, MASS. (WHDH) - Police are investigating after a woman was hit by a stray bullet during a shootout involving people firing from two vehicles in Canton late Monday night.

Officers responding to a report of shots fired in the area of York Street and Ledgewood Drive around 11 p.m. found a woman in her 20s suffering from a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to the leg, according to Canton Police Chief Kenneth Berkowitz.

The woman was taken to an area hospital, where she is expected to be OK.

“We surmise that two cars were probably involved and one car was shooting at another and the poor woman was an innocent victim. That’s what it looks like right now,” Berkowitz said.

Numerous shots were reportedly fired, striking multiple cars and structures.

Neighbor Bill Baran told 7NEWS that he thought the gunfire was fireworks.

“We assumed it was fireworks,” he said. “We have a neighbor who throws parties with fireworks so that’s what we assumed.”

Another resident added, “It seems very unusual here and it’s real concerning this has happened.”

No arrests have been made in connection with the shooting.

Anyone with information is asked to call Canton police.
