GIFFORD — The Indian River County Sheriff’s Office is searching for a man they believe was involved in a shooting incident in the Gifford area overnight Sunday.
A gunshot wound victim went to the Indian River Medical Center’s emergency room Sunday at 10 p.m., where he reported he got into a verbal argument with another man over a female, authorities said.
The victim identified Clifford Wallace as the man who shot him in the arm during the altercation. Wallace, according to what the victim told authorities, retrieved a handgun from his vehicle and fired three or four rounds in the victim’s direction.
The victim told authorities that he walked home and had a relative drive him to the hospital.
Authorities are now seeking information regarding Wallace’s whereabouts as well as any potential witnesses to the shooting.
