CARLISLE TOWNSHIP, Ohio — A female was shot in the head at a large party at an event center in Carlisle Township in Lorain County early Wednesday, according to the Lorain County Sheriff’s Office.

Captain Richard Bosley said at approximately 1:30 a.m. a call initially came in about a noise complaint followed by shots fired from inside a building in the 1400 block of East Avenue.

An 18-year-old female was shot in the head. Her injuries are considered non-threatening, Bosley said.

The sheriff’s office said there were about 50 individuals, mostly underage, running away from the building.

News 5’s overnight news tracker witnessed at least 30 shell casings that littered the street from outside of the event center located in a strip mall to near the intersection of East Avenue and Fuller Road.
