MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – An unfounded report of shots fired in Morgantown’s First Ward resulted in some evacuations and tense moments Thursday night.
Residents in the area of Dorsey Avenue and Hite Street reported shots fired from a nearby home around 9:30 p.m. Thursday. Police evacuated some surrounding homes and redirected traffic due to interactions with a previous resident of the property.
After several unsuccessful attempts were made to make contact with the resident, it was determined the home was unoccupied, and the call was cleared.
No injuries were reported.
