“The investigation has found that Shafi Rasheed approached the second male at a vehicle parked on Edmonds Street with a firearm,” police wrote in the release. “Rasheed was believed to be upset about a female acquaintance, even though the two men had no history of threats or violence between them before this incident.”

Police said “Rasheed assaulted the second male with a firearm and was ultimately shot multiple times as the second male produced his own firearm.”

“After review of video surveillance and witness statements in this case, no criminal charges were filed at this time,” police wrote in the release. “After reviewing the facts of the case, the Danville Commonwealth Attorney’s Office advised they will present the case to a grand jury to review the evidence and determine if criminal charges are appropriate in this incident.”
