At least one man was injured in what police were calling a likely drive-by shooting along 12th Street on Friday night.
Residents reported hearing four shots ring out at around 8:20 p.m., and seeing a man, presumably shot in the shoulder, wander back into his home before police arrived and he was taken to a local hospital.
“We heard four shots and ran outside,” said Barry Barker, a resident. “Then we heard yelling and a bunch of commotion.”
By 9:30 p.m., residents had spilled outdoors to see that a stretch of 12th Street had been cordoned off by police, who were combing the neighborhood house-by-house in search of leads.
