A 24-year-old woman remains in the hospital after being shot Monday afternoon at an Anderson County shooting range.

The woman's condition is considered serious, said Lt. Sheila Cole, Anderson County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman.

The Sheriff's Office is continuing to investigate the incident at the Skip J Range on Murphy Road in Anderson, Cole said Monday evening.
