Police raced to the scene on Richmond’s north side and found two males suffering from gunshot wounds. One man was grazed.
Police said the second man was found in the breezeway of a second floor apartment in the 3900 block of Chamberlayne Avenue. He was taken away on a gurney with life-threatening injuries.
