One person suffered gunshot tonight while riding in a car with her father.
It happened on River Ridge Boulevard near Dumfries about 7 p.m., when a man flagged down a Prince William police officer and told him his daughter had been shot in the head, according to sources.
Choosing not to wait for EMS, the officer served as a police escort as the man rushed his daughter to Sentara Northern Virginia Medical Center.
The unidentified victim appears to have suffered non-life threatening injuries.
A suspect, described by the victim‘s father as possibly a juvenile, got away. The shooting does not appear to be random, according to Prince William police.
More as we have it.
