PRINCE GEORGE, Va. -- Police are on the lookout for a person of interest in a shooting that broke out during a party in Prince George County Saturday night.

Officers were called to the 11300 block of Walton Lake Road for a report of gunshots fired in the area just before 11:15 p.m.

"Investigation revealed that at least three gunshots were fired from a firearm. Several shell cases were recovered at the scene," Officer Alexis Grochmal with Prince George County Police said. "The fired rounds struck a house in the 11400-block of Walton Lake Road damaging the residence."
