One person hospitalized following shooting near Richmond Raceway

HENRICO COUNTY, Va. — One person is currently hospitalized after they were shot on Laburnum Avenue in Henrico, according to police.

They are 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 1/4 of a mile from Richmond Raceway, where tens of thousands of NASCAR fans will gather this weekend.
