DURHAM, N.C. — An overnight shooting at a Durham apartment complex left two men dead and two injured, police said early Saturday.
Durham police responded to a report of a shooting in the 1400 block of East Cornwallis Road shortly before 1:25 a.m., Lt. Jackie Werner, a police spokesperson, said in a news release.
Officers found four men who had been shot, two of whom were pronounced dead at the scene, Werner said.
The two other men were taken to a local hospital, Werner said. One of them suffered life-threatening injuries, while the other man's injuries were not thought to be life-threatening.
Police are investigating.
At least 23 people have been shot in Durham this year, four of them fatally.
The city's fourth homicide of this year came a week ago, when a 38-year-old man was found fatally shot in the eastern part of Durham, The News & Observer previously reported.
