The Meridian Police Department announced on Tuesday that the victim in a shooting that happened in a park two weeks ago is now the suspect in the case.
Police said on Oct. 3, officers responded to a call of a shooting that happened at Kleiner Park in Meridian early that morning. The woman told officers that she didn't see or hear where the gunshot came from, and just walked home, after experiencing a sharp pain in her stomach.
She was taken into surgery and was in good condition following it.
The woman in her 50s was later confronted by investigators. She reportedly admitted that she misfired a gun while at the park.
Officers added that they found and recovered a handgun in her home.
The Meridian Police Department did not announce any pending charges against the woman but said that the case would be handed off to the Ada County Prosecutor's Office.
Officials also wanted to thank everyone in the community for their patience and cooperation during this case.
