No other injuries were reported in the shooting, which remains under investigation.

State police have not disclosed a possible motive for the shooting or provided further details about it, but said it appears to be an "isolated incident" and posed no threat to the community.

Mincy remained jailed Thursday and it wasn't known if she has retained an attorney.
