A woman is expected to survive a wound she received when she was shot Monday night at a residence in the Rose Village neighborhood, according to the Vancouver Police Department.

No one was arrested at the time, but the incident is under investigation, Vancouver police spokeswoman Kim Kapp said in an email.

Police were dispatched at about 11:50 p.m. to a residence in the 3000 block of St. Johns Boulevard for a disturbance. Upon arrival, officers heard a gunshot, entered the residence and discovered a female with a gunshot wound, Kapp said.

The female was transported to a local hospital for treatment, and could not be interviewed.

Two males who were also in the residence were interviewed. However, the male identified as a roommate was also transferred to a hospital for a medical evaluation, based on some health conditions, Kapp said.

Police say there is no danger to the public. The investigation is being transferred to the Domestic Violence Unit for follow-up, Kapp said.
