AURORA, IL — What started as "dirty looks" between neighbors led to a fist fight and shots fired in Aurora Saturday morning, according to police. Authorities say Lagwanda Hudson, 44, of the 2700 block of Village Green Drive, shot at another woman, 30, in the parking lot of the apartment complex where they both live.

According to police, Hudson and the other woman got involved in a fist fight with each other after one of them thought the other was giving "dirty looks." During the fight, police say Hudson pulled a Glock handgun out of her purse and fired at the woman, "narrowly missing the left side of her head."

The victim was not hit by gunfire, but was treated at a local hospital for minor scratches and pain. Hudson was arrested and charged with aggravated discharge of a firearm.
