Original Story

The Dover Police Department is investigating a shooting at a restaurant that left a Dover man injured Sunday afternoon, according to Master Corporal Ryan Schmid.

Schmid said at approximately 4:41 p.m., the Dover Police Department received a call for a shooting at a pizza restaurant in the 1000 block of Walker Road.

Officers responded and located an adult male victim, of Dover, who had been shot in his upper torso. The victim was transported to an area hospital where he received treatment and was listed in stable condition. Detectives arrived on scene and located one .22 caliber shell casing inside of the restaurant and five 9mm casings outside of the restaurant.

Through the investigation, it was determined that someone fired the .22 caliber gun inside the store striking the victim. After this shot was fired, several people ran from the store. As people began to run, another individual fired the five shots from the 9mm outside of the store said Schmid.

Although Schmid said no other victims were located, initial reports from the scene indicate that a female was also transported from the location.
