Last week, a 44-year-old woman was sitting on her couch in Auburn Gresham when someone shot through her front door and killed her. Just hours later, an 80-year-old woman was sleeping in her bedroom in West Pullman when someone outside fired shots that went through her home, hitting her in her head and seriously wounding her.
