In a recent incident reported on Tuesday afternoon in the Leland area, law enforcement officials have confirmed that a woman sustained gunshot injuries during what is being described as a domestic dispute. Fortunately, the victim is expected to recover. La Salle County State’s Attorney, Joe Navarro, provided this update, indicating that the woman’s injuries are not considered life-threatening.
Authorities have taken a male suspect into custody, and he is currently receiving medical attention while being closely monitored by the police. Navarro explained that the suspect would “remain detained as investigators gather information from the scene”.
At this time, the available information is limited, and there is still a need to confirm the exact time and location of the shooting. While it is known to have occurred in the vicinity of Leland, it remains unverified whether the incident took place within the town’s corporate limits.
