Three people were shot early Saturday morning at North Point apartments in Danville, sending two women and a man to the hospital with gunshot wounds. The Pittsylvania County Sheriff’s Office said deputies responded to the complex around 5:04 a.m. after reports of gunfire, and investigators believe the shooting happened in the apartment complex’s parking lot.
According to WSLS, deputies were told that two women and one man arrived at SOVAH Danville suffering from gunshot wounds. The outlet reported that the case remains under investigation and that authorities have not released the victims’ names.
Conflicting Accounts of the Location
Exactly where deputies were dispatched is described differently across local reports. WDBJ reported that authorities responded to the area of 800 North Point Lane, while WSET reported deputies were sent to the area of 800 North Pointe Lane. Both accounts agree on the time, around 5:04 a.m., and the fact that the call came in over reports of gunshots.
WDBJ also reported that authorities had not identified a suspect in the shooting as of Saturday.
Investigation Remains Open
Three people were injured in the Danville incident. No further details about the victims' conditions, ages, or relationship to one another have been made public.
WSET reported that anyone with information related to the shooting is asked to contact Captain Chaney at 434-432-7840. The station's account, like the others, notes that the investigation is ongoing and that no arrests have been announced.
