The Middlesex District Attorney's Office said police located a 33-year-old woman suffering from a gunshot wound. She was transported to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries, according to authorities.

Another man reported to an area hospital on his own with non-life-threatening injuries, according to the district attorney's office.

One woman who has lived in the complex for years said she asked management to add security after a patrol rifle and ammunition were stolen from a state police cruiser parked in a nearby garage in March.

“It was almost like glass shattering, no glass we could see downstairs. Things were just a little out of place in the lobby.”, said Gil Cobarrubias, who said he woke up to the sound of a crash and could hear people yelling near the lobby.

The incident remains under investigation.
