Police investigating shooting at NW Rochester apartment complex

(ABC 6 News) – One person has been taken into custody following a shooting in NW Rochester Friday evening.

It happened around 4:15 p.m. at the Ashland Place apartments in the 1900 block of Ashland Drive NW. The complex is in the area of West Circle Drive and Highway 14.

Officers are investigating and have set up yellow crime scene tape around the area. Police say multiple shots were fired outside the building in the parking lot, but no one was injured. An officer on scene confirmed that the exterior of the building had been shot.

Police say the suspect was taken into custody at another location, but they would not say where. Witnesses say they saw the shooter drive off after firing multiple shots.

Resident Anita Henry has lived at Ashland Place Apartments for around one year. She says she did not see the shooting, but she is concerned for her 13-year-old son’s safety.

“It’s scary because that’s the same time my son gets off his bus from school,” Henry said. “It makes me nervous because I’m wondering if it’s going to happen again. Because you never know.”

Police say there is a no danger to the public at this time.
