2 men hurt in shooting at Largo auto repair shop

One of the men is believed to be the gunman.

LARGO, Fla. — Two people were hurt in a shooting Wednesday morning at an auto repair shop on Belcher Road, according to police.

Aerial video from Sky 10 showed a large police presence at Stout's Auto Service, a business located at 1801 S. Belcher Road, just north of Ulmerton Road.

Officers responded to what they say was an active shooting call at the auto shop. At a media briefing, Largo Police Chief Mike Loux explained police arrived on the scene and found two men with gunshot wounds. 

Officers cleared the building and tended to the two victims. They were taken to area hospitals for treatment; police believe that one of the two of them was the gunman.

The other was said to be a Stout's employee.

During the preliminary investigation, employees and witnesses identified the shooter, but officers do not yet have a motive for the attack, Loux said. They do not have any further knowledge about the status of the men's injuries, either.

The investigation remains active and ongoing.
