Delivery driver's condition upgraded

CHESAPEAKE, Va. (WAVY) - A delivery driver shot by two unknown suspects in Chesapeake Sunday night is improving.

Chesapeake police spokesman Leo Kosinski said the victim was delivering Chinese food to the 2500 block of Malcolm Court when two black male suspects approached him, robbed him of an unknown amount of cash and shot him once in the abdomen. The suspects then fled on foot.

The victim drove a few blocks to the Solo gas station on Campostella Road where he called police. Medics arrived and took the driver to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital, Kosinski said.

Monday morning, Kelly O'Sullivan with the Chesapeake Police Department told WAVY.com the victim's condition was upgraded and his prognosis was good. The injuries are not life-threatening.

The owner of the Great China restaurant, where the victim worked, told WAVY.com Monday that he spoke to his driver Sunday night at the hospital. Andy Zheng says the victim was on his 23rd delivery of the day when he was robbed and shot. According to Zheng, his business is no longer delivering to the neighborhood where the crime happened.

The investigation into the shooting continues. There are no suspects.
