Warrick was shot in the mouth early Sunday, with the bullet becoming lodged in her upper back.

Warrick’s friend Sasha Snardon tells the Courier-Journal (http://cjky.it/1XaBWKG ) that she was leaving the party with Warrick when they came across a large group of people outside, some of whom then began fighting.

Warrick’s friends say they heard at least 20 to 30 shots fired.
