The Carrboro Police Department is investigating a shooting on Monday night that resulted from an argument between people in two different vehicles.

A release from the department Tuesday afternoon said officers responded to reports of a shooting near the intersection of Jones Ferry Road and Davie Road around 6:53 p.m. on Monday. After their initial investigation, police said two people “engaged in an argument” that escalated to the point of gunshots being fired from one vehicle into another. The suspect then reportedly drove away from the scene.

Carrboro Police said no injuries were reported from the potential road rage incident. Investigators do not believe there is any ongoing threat to the community’s safety, according to Tuesday’s release, but the case remains “open and active.”

Any community members who may have information about the incident, or were in the area of Jones Ferry Road and Davie Road at the time of the shooting, are encouraged to call Investigator Armstrong with Carrboro Police at 919-918-7417. Those who wish to remain anonymous can use the Crime Stoppers hotline for Chapel Hill, Carrboro and UNC at 919-942-7515.
