DOTHAN:       07:43.    Dothan 911 dispatched Dothan Police, Dothan Fire and Pilcher Ambulance to 1604 Alexander Drive to a firearm assault.

The victim was reported to have been shot in the hand. The injuries are not reported to be life threatening.

Dothan Police Patrol requested Criminal Investigation Division to respond. A female was taken into custody and transported to Criminal Investigation Division. At this time it is unknown if arrested or just questioning. This is reported a domestic related incident.

Dothan Police are still on the scene conducting investigation.

NOTE:     Crimes stats in Dothan are down on violent crime. And Dothan Police do a super terrific job on preventable crime. But how can anyone prevent a domestic related incident? If law enforcement are not called before the situation escalates to where the firearm assault takes place, it is a unpreventable crime.
