As News Center 7 previously reported, Moraine police and medics were dispatched shortly before 11 p.m. on Sunday to the 2400 block of Orange Avenue on initial reports of a shooting.

When officers got to the scene, they found two men who had been shot multiple times in the street. They were both taken to local hospitals for treatment.

Moraine Police previously said their detectives had a lot of potential leads to check. They believe a road rage incident, or a robbery or drug deal, could have led to the shooting.

“I think our investigators are looking into a possibility of at least one vehicle that was seen leaving the area,” Parish told News Center 7.

The shooting remains under investigation by Moraine Police. Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call Moraine Police at (937) 535-1166.
