TIMMONSVILLE -- Florence County sheriff's investigators are at a home on Clifford Street in Timmonsville where a 37-year-old woman says she was shot in the mouth, Wednesday afternoon.
The woman says she was standing near the woods with two relatives when they heard gunshots.
Her relatives say next thing they knew she was bleeding from the mouth.
"It was 10 shots, but one came through the area where we was sitting and she was standing up. So, she got struck by the bullet. She was walking toward the house and she was running. She was like, 'Oh my God'," said Melane Jackson, the victim's cousin.
The woman refused to go to the hospital, despite it being suggested by her relatives and law enforcement.
Deputies are searching the wooded area near the home and talking with neighbors to see if they heard any gunshots.
We'll release more information as it becomes available.
