Virginia Beach police investigate shooting that hurt two adults, two children

Officers said two adults and two children were taken to hospitals with what appeared to be non life- threatening injuries.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Sunday night, police were on the scene of a quadrouple-shooting incident in the 3700 block of Whitney Court in Virginia Beach.

Two adults and two children were hurt. The crime scene was in the Twin Canal Village section of the city, between South Independence Boulevard and South Lynnhaven Road.

One resident inside the the Twin Canal Village Apartments explained she saw the shooting take place. 

“The person actually got out of his vehicle and parked his car, and got out and shot right beside my building," said Elisa Ormond.

According to a police spokesperson, two adults and two children who are under 12 years of age were transported to local hospitals with what appear to be non-life threatening injuries.

They have not been publicly identified by police.

Dispatch says this happened just before 5:30 p.m.

Ormond said this is not the first shooting that has happened near her home. She said more protection is needed. 

“I would just love for them to put a patrol car out here," she said. "At least one, just at least one, it will make everyone feel better - I feel like he will do something."
