UPDATE: Elderly Women Narrowly Escape Injury in Stamford West Side

Update: 7:40 p.m.

Two elderly Stamford women escaped injury as bullets flew into the bedrooms of their West Main Street apartments during a lunch-time shoot-out Monday.

Stamford Police said they found that four separate apartments and a vehicle were struck with gunfire during the incident that was reported about 12:20 p.m. when several callers contacted Stamford 911.

Police said Monday night that witnesses said “a dark colored Audi A-4 dropped off two black males at this intersection and shots rang out a few minutes later. The Audi travelled west on West Main Street and the (men) ran west on West Main and then south on Ann Street.”

Lt. Diedrich Hohn said, “We have the males on video running south on Ann Street. We believe that these two males were firing at a subject in the driveway of 235 West Main St. No victims were found at the scene and all local hospitals have been checked.”

Hohn said the caliber of the shell casings isn’t being released at this time.

Police hope to be able to release video soon, Hohn said.

Officers checked all the apartments that were struck with gunfire and everyone was accounted for.

Two of the four apartments that were stuck by the errant bullets entered the bedrooms of two elderly females. The women, described as being in their 60s and early 70s, were not hurt “but they were traumatized by the event,” police said

The suspects seen in the video are described as a black male with a thin build, medium length dreadlocks, wearing a long sleeved white shirt with a black T-shirt over it, white high top basketball sneakers and carrying a heavy black winter coat. He possibly may have a soft cast on his right arm.

The second suspect is described as a black male with a stocky build, age unknown, wearing a grey hoodie, black jacket over it and dark colored cargo pants.

The suspects may be in possession of a handgun and should be considered armed and dangerous.

Police said, “We do not have a motive for the shooting nor have we identified the intended target at this point. Anyone having any information on this incident you are urged to call the SPD Detective bureau at 203-977-4417. All information will be kept confidential.”
