An Airbnb guest has been charged with attempted murder after shooting the host of the house through a door.

The shooting happened on May 4 around 8:30 p.m. in Portland, Oregon when the Airbnb host attempted to contact Caveion Lett, 21, who was staying in the house. Lett then fired multiple rounds of a 9mm handgun through a door, according to police.

One of the rounds hit a female victim who suffered life-threatening injuries after being hit in her chest, but received medical attention and is expected to survive.

Police officers went through a "protracted negotiation" with Lett, who eventually agreed to surrender and was detained, according to a news release.
