Additional charges
are pending.
Shortly after 1 a.m. on Saturday, March 24, police were called to the 3000 block of Lamb Avenue for a report of a shooting. When officers arrived, they located an adult female suffering from an apparent gunshot wound.
Police were told two unknown males approached the victim and her friends while they were outside within the block in an attempted robbery. The two suspects then demanded several items and money and when she resisted, one of the suspects fired his weapon striking the victim. The suspects then fled the scene running northbound on Lamb Avenue.
The victim was transported to a local hospital with non-life threatening injuries. She has since been released.
Anyone with additional information about this incident is asked to call Major Crimes Det. N. Reese at (804) 646-0712 or contact Crime Stoppers at 780-1000 or at www.7801000.com. The P3 Tips Crime Stoppers app for smartphones may also be used. All Crime Stoppers methods are anonymous.
