AUSTIN, Texas (AP) – A Texas state judge was shot and wounded in the driveway of her home in Austin late Friday as witnesses looked on, police said.
District Judge Julie Kocurek was taken to a hospital and was in stable condition, Austin Police Cmdr. Mark Spangler said. Her injuries are not believed to be life threatening, he said.
No suspect is in custody and there is no indication of whether the shooting was related to her work, Police Lt. Lee Rogers said.
Police are interviewing witnesses to the shooting, which was reported at 10:16 p.m.
“At this point we don’t have a lot of information about the suspect,” Spangler said.
