The Moore County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a drive-by shooting that happened in broad daylight on Monday afternoon.

MCSO deputies were dispatched to the 100 block of Lone Pine Road in Lakeview near Vass around 5 p.m. Moore County News saw at least nine shell casings scattered along the street, and bullet holes were seen in a vehicle and a house.

The road was closed to traffic while investigators were on the scene. Major Eric Galloway with the MCSO says deputies canvassed the area conducting interviews with possible witnesses.
