Norwich PD: No danger to public, shooting suspect taken into custody
NORWICH – The City of Norwich Police Department is investigating a Thursday morning shooting along Cortland Street.
Police have not yet named a suspect but said one person was in custody and officers describe the incident as a non-accidental discharge of a firearm.
Norwich Police Chief Rodney Marsh said no one was injured and there was no danger to the public.
“At approximately 11:51 a.m., officers responded to 75 Cortland Street for a Check Welfare Complaint. An individual had called 911 and requested the police. One individual was taken into custody, inside the residence,” reported Marsh.
“The individual did fire a round from a weapon, but no one was struck or injured. Again, the individual is in custody and there is no danger to the community,” he said.
