A person has been hospitalized after a reported shooting in Groveton.

Fairfax County police officers are currently at the scene in the 7100 block of Fairchild Drive.

According to the Fairfax County Police Department, the suspect left in “a dark-colored coupe,” though no description of the person is available. The department advises anyone with information to call 911.

The address is in the Meadow Woods Apartments. The complex was the site of an extended police barricade last summer after two men allegedly fired handguns at two people in an apartment, injuring one of them.
