HAMPTON, Va. — The Hampton Police Division said a 26-year-old man was walking down a Hampton street Wednesday when he was shot.

Police said the man isn't cooperating in the investigation, and they don't know what circumstances led up to the shooting.

Detectives don't have a suspect description to share for the case right now, but asked that if you know anything that might help them figure out who pulled the trigger, you give them a call.
