PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. — Port St. Lucie police made an arrest in Monday night's domestic violence-related shooting, in which a 42-year-old woman was shot multiple times.
Lisa Brightman, 57, was arrested and charged with first-degree attempted homicide.
On Monday night, police responded to a shooting in the 2600 block of Southwest Acco Road. According to PSLPD, Brightman and the victim, who is her ex-wife, had an argument about the victim moving out.
The victim was shot by Brightman four times with a 9mm handgun. Chief Richard Del Toro told WPTV's Tyler Hatfield the victim was shot in the arm, thigh and chest. She is in stable condition at HCA Florida Lawnwood Hospital.

Del Toro said the two women are divorced, but were currently living together. He said Brightman was taken into custody without incident, and a search warrant recovered a handgun and ammunition.
After the shooting, police say the victim ran to a neighbor's home. WPTV asked one neighbor if this has ever happened in the neighborhood before.
“Not here. No, I've been here for three years," said Michael Gerdvil. "I haven't seen anything like this. It was crazy. It was definitely a shock.”
Neighbors also took video of the scene Monday night, which showed multiple PSLPD cars parked along the street.
