Woman, 44, Shot While Hanging Laundry in Yard
A 44-year-old woman was shot three times Thursday night in the backyard of her Lancaster home, authorities said Friday.
Latty DiSanzo Hart was checking on her dogs and hanging laundry in her backyard in the 1200 block of Milling Street about 9:30 p.m. when she was wounded, said Deputy Jeff Adams of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department station in Lancaster.
Hart made it back into her home, where a family member called police, Adams said.
Hart was treated for gunshot wounds to her waist and legs at Providence Holy Cross Medical Center in Mission Hills, where she was in stable condition Friday.
Authorities were trying to determine Friday who shot her and why.
