Police are investigating a shooting that took place during the Washington County Fair on Friday.
Fayetteville officers responded to reports of gunfire at about 10:30 p.m. at the fairgrounds at 2537 N. McConnell Ave., according to a news release. Washington County officers were already on the scene, the release stated.
One victim was located and transported to a local hospital.
Police said they believe the shooting was an isolated incident, and not a random act of violence.
As of 11:30 p.m. Friday the suspect had not yet been located (see update above). The investigation is ongoing.
It was the second shooting in two days in Northwest Arkansas. A man died Thursday after being shot in Bentonville just south of the downtown area. A third shooting was reported early Sunday at a club in Springdale.
