Another shooting in downtown Charlottesville has left another man dead.

Charlottesville Police said in a tweet that officers responded to the 1-thousand block of Grover Street around 10 o’clock last night, discovering the body of a man who had died of an apparent gunshot wound.

Our sister station W-I-N-A reports that the man was identified as 36-year-old Eldridge Vandrew Smith. Detectives reportedly found multiple spent shell casings near the scene. It’s the second shooting in the area in seven days.

 

No suspect has been arrested, and an investigation continues.
