Two People Allegedly Shot This Morning In Salisbury

We've been getting messages all morning stating two people have been shot in Salisbury this morning. We're trying to get to the bottom of it and we'll update you as soon as we can. 

UPDATE: We're told there was a home invasion in Nithsdale last night. One person is dead and the other is in surgery. 

UPDATE: As crazy as this might sound, we're getting word, (not confirmed) that there was a double shooting in Salisbury as well as the home invasion in Nithsdale. The home invasion, two patients were beaten with a baseball bat. Incredible!

UPDATE: As for the home invasion, one of the two male victims in Nithsdale is deceased. We're told it is a father and son.

Is this the one off Pemberton Dr? Saw crime scene tape roped off 1/4 mile from Nithsdale.

Thank you. It happened in the area of Pemberton Drive from what I have heard

My wife is always saying I am over reacting because I have a pistol handy in every room of the house, (we have no children), I am ready for those lazy degenerate home invaders!

That's is exactly why you need big dogs and a lot of guns . Dogs hold em off long enough to get to your guns

I do not believe they are father and son. They work together, they are and have been roommates for a very long time. Probably a father/son relationship. I understand it is down the road from Nithsdale, not in Nithsdale. Pemberton Drive! Detectives still on sight as stated by a neighbor from 2 doors down.

Right a dog will warn you and give you a bit of time to get your bearings. First get your gun and if possible like if you are in a bedroom, lock the door. If they burst in fill them full of bullets. Then call a lawyer, before calling 911 and have the lawyer en route.
If you are rural, don't call anyone. Just drag the trash in a field or the woods with an ATV or a tractor and let the buzzards and wild animals take care of the rest for you.

A shooting in Berlin as well this morning. It's a matter of time over there, with all the drug markets.

I just drove around Nithsdale and there is no signs of any crime. The police tape is a 1/4 mile east of Nithsdale so my guess is that the home invasion/shooting was there.

I have two Dogs, and a baseball bat at each door and I also have hunting rifles and and crossbow ready. Don't want to have to kill anyone, but have no problem disabling them for life.

10:58, both in Berlin were in their 90's and sounds like one of them was terminally ill. nothing to do with drugs or anything else of that nature. you know what 'assuming' does.

that's the point...the irony....Church st. probably safer. They leave u alone in the areas that are labeled "bad"

I think Church St is even more dangerous than Nithdale

The Crack/Heroin dealers have and can be seen nightly around the tennis courts upon entering Nithsdale. Damn shame we moved to such a crime ridden area. My kids say their friends at Salisbury Christian are snorting cocaine in the bathrooms before class. Crazy times we live in. Praying for the victims here.

The couple in Berlin were in their 90's. A very sweet and devoted couple who had no children. They were very excited about moving to an assisted living home this week. As a part of their family, we always knew that they would go together. They could not and would not live without each other. We are devastated.

Too many cops sitting on desk. Get them back on the streets. The county has gotten as bad as the State Police two or three on at a time. Hell lunch time you see ten of them eating together. They got cops doing what civilians should be doing. Cops are cops not mechanics and property guys. The city needs to take care of schools in the city. You dont see a county car out in the county no more. I have left calls to Mike he is just another politician
