Virginia Beach, Va. – Several cars were damaged when two people exchanged gunfire Tuesday night near Baker Road in Virginia Beach. The two people involved are still at large.

Police were first called to the 5500 block of Baccalaureate Drive around 7:51 p.m. after hearing reports of shots fired. When police arrived, no victims were found and the scene was cleared.

About 45 minutes later, around 8:45 p.m., police were called to Weblin Place Apartments with reports that a person had been shot. The apartment complex is located just a street over from the previous report.
