Police have said they do not believe that the doctor from Chertsey was not purposely targeted. They said that the group next door to his building had “recklessly” discharged the weapon.

Officers in the area received multiple calls at around 2am reporting gunfire, according to 11Alive News. Once the police reached the Clairmont Road apartment, they found the 31-year-old doctor with a single gunshot wound in his head.
