Gunfire was shot towards a car as the car fled the scene and went directly to the hospital. The victim found there was a 38-year-old man, who was not injured but refused to cooperate with SPVM. He was later arrested for possession of drugs and narcotics.
Investigators and K-9 units searched the scene, finding bullet shells and gunfire impact markings in the process.
The area reopened to traffic several hours later. Police believe that the incident is drug-related.
