In Decatur, Georgia, Lashunda Heath-Ellison was critically injured early Wednesday morning when she was shot in the head by a stray bullet while she was at home asleep. Her husband, Mac Ellison, said he woke up shortly after midnight to the sound of his wife’s ragged breathing. When Ellison turned his wife over, he saw “blood everywhere,” he said. 

According to Ellison, the bullet traveled through the couple’s headboard, into the top of his wife’s head and stopped in her sinus cavity. “I stand here completely devastated, not knowing what is next but trusting God for everything,” he said.
