An adult male was seriously injured in a shooting on the 1400 block of Holloway Street in east Durham Tuesday night, and the investigation into what happened remains open. Officers responded to the scene and found the victim before emergency crews rushed him to a hospital for treatment.
According to CBS 17, the man was seriously injured in the shooting, and emergency medical crews transported him to a local hospital for treatment. The outlet's video coverage of the incident, first published by CBS 17, also placed the attack in that same stretch of Holloway Street.
WRAL reported that police officers were called to the intersection of Holloway Street and Alma Street in east Durham around 11 p.m., where they located the man. That timeline and location, reported by WRAL, line up with the general area described in CBS 17's account of the shooting.
No Suspect or Motive Released
As of the latest reporting, the shooting remains under active investigation, and authorities have not released additional details regarding potential suspects or a motive, per the same CBS 17 account. No information about an arrest has been made public.

Holloway Street's Recent History
This is not the first violent incident reported along that same east Durham corridor. WRAL reported that at least one person was hurt in a shooting-related incident outside a restaurant on Holloway Street late one Saturday night, an incident separate from Tuesday's shooting.
In that earlier case, WRAL reported that a man who had been shot returned to the scene outside the restaurant, Salsa Brava, and was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Police at the time also said it was unclear whether a man who arrived at a nearby hospital with a non-life-threatening stab wound was connected to that shooting investigation, leaving that detail unresolved.
No update connecting Tuesday's shooting to that earlier incident has been reported. For now, investigators are asking anyone with information about the Tuesday night shooting on Holloway Street to come forward.
