CINCINNATI — A woman was shot while driving along I-74, according to Cincinnati police.

Police said the woman was driving eastbound on I-74 toward I-75 when she was shot. After she was shot, the woman drove to a home in St. Bernard and called police.

Body camera footage from an officer on the scene showed the woman had three wounds: one in each leg and one in her arm. There were at least three bullet holes in her car.

The woman told police she was 82 years old, and was hit by the bullets as she drove on I-74 from Harrison. She was taken to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center; Cincinnati police called her wounds non-life threatening.

Police said the woman believes she wasn't the intended target and was an innocent driver caught in between another target.

No suspect or vehicle description has been released by police at this time.
