MILWAUKEE (AP) — A Random Lake woman says her daughter was shot in the stomach at Fort Hood, Texas, but is stable at an area hospital.

Lisa Pfund says her daughter, 19-year-old Amber Bahr, was shot during an attack that left 12 people dead and 31 wounded at the Army base.

A Fort Hood public affairs officer would not confirm any identities of the injured.

Pfund told The Associated Press in a telephone interview that she didn’t know anything more than Bahr had been shot and that she hoped to get more details soon. She talked to emergency room personnel, who filled her in on her daughter’s condition.

Pfund says her daughter joined the Army reserves when she was 17 and she last saw her in May. She was unsure of Bahr’s rank or unit.

Random Lake is about 35 miles north of Milwaukee.
