No one was injured after two separate incidents of gunfire in the West End of Alexandria over the weekend.

The second shooting occurred after 7 p.m. on Sunday, October 30, outside an apartment complex in the 5800 block of Quantrell Avenue.
“Shootings are dangerous,” said APD spokesman Marcel Bassett. “It’s something that we are taking seriously.”
No suspect descriptions have been released.
