Houston woman injured in apartment shooting says mental trauma lingers without arrest

A Houston woman said she’s physically fine after a bullet went through her apartment wall and hit her, but she’s mentally hurting knowing the police haven’t made an arrest.

With their guns drawn and shields out, officers searched a southeast Houston complex looking for a shooter.

ABC13 was there Wednesday at the Berkley Court condominiums just off the Gulf Freeway as it went down.

HPD was called to the complex after the victim, Sofia Jimenez, was shot by a bullet that went through the wall.

On Friday, Jimenez talked to Eyewitness News on the phone.

“It’s still clear in my mind,” Jimenez said. “I cry every day. Every day.”

Jimenez recalled being in her bedroom when she heard a loud boom.

“I started screaming because I felt a tingling all over my body,” Jimenez explained.

Jimenez shared a photo showing the injuries she sustained from the bullet.

“The bullet went through my wall, through my work chair, through my back, through my armpit, through my other wall, and went into my second bedroom,” Jimenez said.
