Cumberland County Sheriff’s Detectives are searching for a person of interest in a shooting that happened last night in the Gallberry Farms community.

The victim, who has asked that his identity not be released, says two unknown males in a red, older model pickup truck rang the doorbell of his home on Gallberry Farm Road at around 11:00 p.m. and attempted to gain entry. The victim was able to force the door closed and lock it.
