Arlington roommates in hospital after shooting each other Wednesday, police say
Two Arlington men were in the hospital, one stable and the other in critical condition, after police said they believe the men shot each other at an apartment Wednesday afternoon.
Police responded to the scene around 1:10 p.m. Wednesday after reports of shots fired, saying a caller also mentioned arguing at an apartment at Stratton Apartment Homes in the 200 block of Hollandale Circle.
Neighbors said the two men were roommates, according to police. A short time after they heard the argument, neighbors said they heard multiple gunshots. Officers found the men lying on the ground outside.
Police said the two men had been living together for about a week but investigators do not know at this time what the argument was about.
The names of the men have not been released.
Police said the domestic crimes unit is investigating the shooting and criminal charges are pending an outcome of that investigation.
