LAPORTE — A deputy LaPorte County prosecutor who has worked on some of the county's biggest trials was shot early Tuesday morning.

County Prosecutor Robert Beckman confirmed to WSBT News that Jennifer Evans was shot in her home. Beckman would not release any other information, saying only Evans' injuries are not life threatening.

Evans is married, but Beckman would not say whether her husband was home at the time of the shooting.

Evans worked on the Richard Dobeski child pornography case and helped prosecute the Kathy Phillips murder trial.

In November, she was elected to be the judge of Superior Court 3.
