DETECTIVES have raided a Toowoomba home after a woman was randomly shot with a gel blaster gun.

The 29-year-old woman was walking on North St just after 1pm yesterday when she heard a weapon firing and a sharp pain in her stomach.

At the time she saw a dark-coloured barrel sticking out of a passing car window.

The woman took to social media shortly after the incident, posting photos of her injuries.

“Just been shot at with a pellet gun rifle by two little p----s,” she wrote on Facebook.

“Wearing peak caps and dark glasses, so clearly intended to hit random targets!!!!

“They got me in the stomach.”

Toowoomba detectives searched an Arrowfield St address and located a grey sedan and three gel blaster guns.

A 35-year-old man and a 30-year-old woman are assisting police with their inquiries.

Police are asking people who were in the area to check their dashcam and CCTV footage for any suspicious activity and to contact police with relevant information.
