Press release: Lexington Police provide update on Virginia Drive shooting

Virginia Drive, which runs parallel to Winston Road/Old Highway 52, was the scene of a shooting Saturday night.

Lexington police have confirmed that three adults were injured in a shooting Saturday night, Feb. 3.

In a statement released Sunday, police said officers responded just after 9 p.m. to a report of a shooting at a residence on Virginia Drive. Virginia Drive runs behind Hayes Jewelers off Winston Road.

Following the incident last night police did say there had been a party happening at the house and that they were searching for a white Dodge Challenger and one suspect. No update was provided on results of that search.

Officials said three adults were shot and were transported by Davidson County EMS to Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Hospital for treatment. The condition of the victims is not known at this time.

Police are continuing their investigation but say it appears to be an isolated incident. Anyone with information is asked to call Lexington Crime Stoppers at 336-243-2400. Cash rewards are available for credible tips that lead to an arrest.
