NEWPORT NEWS, Va. — Some shoppers are thinking about their safety this holiday season after a shooting happened in a Newport News parking lot on Oyster Point Road. Police say the male victim went inside the nearby Cold Stone Creamery to get help after being shot.

"Nothing like this ever happened to where someone gets shot and comes running into your store," said Wanda, a Cold Stone employee who has been serving customers at the location for almost 20 years.

She says she's seen many things during her tenure, but helping a shooting victim tops it all.

"I heard a customer come in the door. I was assuming he was coming to get ice cream, but actually he sat down and he was talking to someone on the phone, and I heard him say 'I just got shot,'" Wanda recalled.
