Lee County Sheriff’s Office is on the scene of a shooting in Lehigh Acres where they have a neighborhood blocked off.

A shooting late Monday night is at least the third in the last 18 months. The gunfire sounded off around 11:30 p.m.

Several neighbors told WINK News off camera they heard several shots, then a car speed off.

LCSO confirms at least one person was hurt. For hours, detectives searched for clues. At least 30 evidence markers lined Cedartree Ave.

A K9 was brought in to help, leading detectives to the intersection of Cedartree and Centennial. It is the site where a 14-year-old was shot and killed at the end of March.

There is still an active investigation going on.
