Police are investigating two shootings this morning that sent three people to the hospital.
The first shooting happened just after midnight in the 800 block of Johnson Ave. during an attempted robbery, said Chris Amos, police spokesman.
The man who was shot was taken to Sentara Norfolk General with injuries that weren’t considered life-threatening, Amos said. No suspect description was available in that case, but the man was thought to be driving a dark-colored sport utility vehicle.
About 5:45 a.m., police were called to the 600 block of E. Ocean View Ave. on a report of a shooting, Amos said.
A woman there had been shot during an argument with a man, Amos said. After the shooting, the woman and her son chased the man, took the gun and called for help.
The woman was taken to a hospital with injuries that weren’t considered serious and the man was treated for minor injuries, Amos said.
The man is facing a malicious wounding charge, Amos said.
