MESA, AZ - A second suspect is in custody after a woman was shot at a Mesa apartment complex Tuesday night.

Mesa Police Department spokesman Steve Berry said officers were called to the University Green apartments near Gilbert Road and University Drive around 8:30 p.m. after receiving reports that a woman had suffered multiple gunshot wounds.

Berry said one suspect was taken into custody right after the shooting and the second about 45 minutes later. One is 16 and the other is 17-years-old, according to Berry.

The victim was transported to a local hospital. Wednesday morning Berry said the victim was out of ICU and is expected to recover.

Berry said a motive for the shooting is unknown.
