A Long View man was shot twice in the leg early Tuesday when bullets were fired into the mobile home where he was staying, police said.
Johnny Ray Roland, 22, was sleeping in a mobile home off Fourth Avenue in Long View about 1 a.m. Tuesday when bullets hit the trailer, said Lt. Rick Coffey of the Long View Police Department.
Police believe the shots were fired from a passing car.
Two bullets struck Roland's leg, Coffey said, and he was taken to Frye Regional Medical Center.
He was in stable condition later Tuesday.
Another man living in the home was not injured.
Coffey said police do not have a suspect or a description of the vehicle. Anyone with information is asked to call the Long View Police Department at 828-327-2343.
