2 Injured In Baltimore County Shootings Saturday Night

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Two people are injured following separate shootings in Baltimore County Saturday night.

Just before 8 p.m., police responded to a report of a shooting in the 1300 block of Sugarwood Circle in Essex.

Several minutes later, police located a man on Holgate Drive who had been struck by gunfire. The victim, identified as 21-year-old Quantez Corbin, was transported to a local hospital for treatment.

His injuries are believed to be minor. Investigators say the incident may have been as a result of a dispute.

A short time later, police say two groups exchanged gunfire near the basketball courts in the area of St. Regis and Marquette Road in Rosedale. It happened around 8:42 p.m.

Police believe that the victim, who suffered a gunshot wound to the neck, was not an intended target, and was accidentally struck.
