1 Killed & 1 Injured in Shooting

An overnight shooting left one person dead and sent another to the hospital. Two people were shot on Redwood Avenue around 2:15 am on Tuesday, according to police. One person died at the scene and the other was taken to the hospital with non life-threatening injuries.

Homicide detectives are searching the scene for a suspect, but they said they are having trouble because neighbors are unwilling to say what they saw this morning. They have not released a description of the suspect.

Police also recovered a stolen car on the same street where the shooting happened. They are processing it to see if it had anything to do with the shooting. Officers said they plan on releasing more information Tuesday morning. If you have any information in the case; please call crime stoppers anonymously at 704-334-1600.
