HENRICO COUNTY, Va. -- A man is currently hospitalized after he was shot Friday evening near Laburnum Avenue in Henrico, according to police.

Police say they arrived at VCU Medical Center just after 7:35 p.m. after receiving a call that someone was being treated for a gunshot wound.

An investigation led officers to Delmont Street where they found a cluster of evidence outside a nearby convenience store.

Police say the victim is expected to survive.

He is the fourth person to be shot on Delmont Street since May, a growing issue city leaders have condemned in the past.

The shooting occurred just a quarter of a mile mile from Richmond Raceway, where tens of thousands of NASCAR fans will gather this weekend.

If you have any information about this shooting, police ask you to call Henrico County Police at 804-501-5000, Crime Stoppers at 804-780-1000, or submit the information through the P3Tips application on their mobile device.
