Raleigh, N.C. Two men were shot at a Raleigh hotel in the 900 block of Wake Towne Drive Thursday afternoon. Each ended up at a different hospital for treatment of his injuries, and there is not an ongoing threat to public safety, police said.
One of the men made his way to Duke Raleigh Hospital. The other was spotted outside the hotel by a Wake County school bus driver who offered to help.
That man declined the offer and got into another car.
When police arrived on Wake Towne Drive to investigate the shooting, neither man was present.
