WOODINVILLE, Wash. (AP) — The King County Sheriff’s office says a pregnant woman walking in her Woodinville neighborhood suffered minor injuries after she was shot by a pellet gun or a .22-caliber weapon Tuesday evening.

KOMO News reports that two teenagers were detained after the shots.

The 30-year-old woman was taken to Overlake Hospital with minor injuries after the shots. She is two months pregnant.

Police say the woman was walking near her home when she heard a bang, then felt pain in her right shoulder. That’s when she realized she had been shot.
