A Vicksburg woman was treated Monday night for gunshot wounds she believes she received early Sunday morning, Sheriff Martin Pace said today.

Andrea Mason, 43, 203 Ivy Circle, went to River Region Medical Center because her leg hurt, Pace said. Hospital officials called deputies at 7:30 p.m. to report Mason had two wounds below her knee from a small-caliber weapon, he said. The bullet is believed to have passed through and was not recovered, he said.

Mason told deputies she was celebrating New Year’s Eve and drinking at several different locations and is not sure when or where she was shot, but believes it happened just after midnight, said the sheriff. She noticed blood on her pants when she was returning home around 1:30 a.m., he said.

Mason was treated and released, hospital spokesman Allen Karel said.
