At 2:40pm the Sheriff’s Office received several 911 calls reporting a possible shooting incident in the area of Lyons Bald Mountain Rd. and Scattergood.

According to the Sgt. A.J. Ford the initial investigation indicates that a juvenile may have been tresspasing on private property with the intent to steal.

That juvenile was confronted by an individual and that is when the shots were fired. Nobody was wounded. It is still unclear who was responsible for the shooting.
