NORTH CHARLESTON, SC (WCSC) - North Charleston police say one person was transported to MUSC Wednesday night following a shooting in North Charleston.

Authorities say the victim was suffering from a gunshot wound and was transported to MUSC. The victim's condition is not known.

According to investigators, it is believed that a dark in colored sedan pulled up alongside the Tahoe while traveling on Montague Avenue when shots were fired, striking the victim's vehicle.

Officers continue to search for the person who shot a man outside of the Clarion Inn on Dorchester Road around 4 p.m. on Tuesday.

Police are also investigating a double shooting that happened four hours later on Osceola and Cherokee streets. Officers say two people were shot in the back. They say someone jumped out of a Nissan 4-door and began firing at them.
