SALISBURY — A man was hospitalized with a gunshot wound sustained outside of a Salisbury restaurant on Tuesday.

The victim was a 67-year-old man who was shot in the parking lot of the Burger King on East Innes Street shortly before 7:30 p.m.

Although the shooting took place at the fast food-food restaurant, but it does not appear that either party involved was there for dinner. Reports from the scene indicated that an argument, possibly stemming from a road rage incident, prompted the other individual to pull the trigger.

According to a spokesperson with the Salisbury Police Department the victim was transported to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The victim was reportedly struck in the hand and the stomach, although it appears that a single bullet caused both injuries.

A single shell casing was reportedly recovered from the scene.

As for the shooter, their identity, if known has not been made public. The incident remains under investigation.

The story will be updated as more information becomes available.
