According to a news release from the Madison Police Department:
On Friday night around 11:38 p.m. Madison Police went to Atwood Avenue where a 57-year-old Stoughton woman had just been “shot” with a couple of paint balls. The victim was struck in the chest and stomach, and was complaining of pain.
She said the shooter was inside a car that drove by heading towards Monona on Atwood. A witness said he could see two men in the front of the red car, and two women in the back. He thought it was a four-door Pontiac Grand Am. The victim said a second person was also hit but left. Officers found multiple rounds had been fired, with several hitting a nearby building. Dane County dispatchers indicated similar paint ball incidents had been reported earlier on the west side of Madison, and in Monona.

its just a shame that stupid ignorant kids commit these kinds of acts, i have 9years of playing paintball, and its just a shame that thanks to a couple of idiots, this sport is looked at a threat to society
Teens can have fun in less dangerous and more productive ways, than shooting a paintball at someone when they aren't in a paintball range. It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt.
Boy I tell'ya
