Chesapeake, Va. - Police are investigating after a man was shot in the South Norfolk part of Chesapeake Sunday morning.

Police responded to a call of shots fired in the 3000 block of Parkside Drive at Forest Cove Apartments at 11:39am and found the 22 year old man.

The crime scene was right in April Brickhouse's backyard.

"I just heard shooting in the back, I was standing in my living room, and I heard them shooting three times in the back," said Brickhouse.
