From police: 

Shooting into an Occupied Dwelling – On January 1 at 8:53AM, officers responded to a residence located in the 4500 block of Dodds Mill Dr in Haymarket (20169) to investigate a destruction of property. The homeowner reported to police that two bullet holes were discovered near the front porch area of the residence. A bullet fragment was also located on the floor inside the home. The homeowner believed the incident took place sometime after midnight when a noise was heard outside. Police were not contacted at that time. Multiple shell casings were found in the roadway near the homeowner’s residence. During the investigation, officers learned of a large party that occurred at a neighboring home the night prior. Upon contact at that residence, officers further discovered a round was fired in the home during the gathering. No injuries were reported and no suspect was identified.
