Man, woman shot while shopping at Adams County Dollar General

Two people were shot while shopping at a Dollar General store on Tuesday morning, the Adams County Sheriff’s Office announced.

The shooting happened just before 9:30 a.m. inside of the Dollar General at 5300 Sheridan Blvd., next to the Willis Case Golf Course, according to deputies.

Deputies said the male and female customers were in the store when another man and woman were checking out at the register. As they finished checking out and went to leave, the man turned around and shot both customers multiple times.
