A Bristol, Tennessee resident surrendered to law enforcement following a drive-by shooting incident in Abingdon, the Washington County Virginia Sheriff’s Office reported.

According to a news release from the sheriff’s office, deputies arrived at a residence on Drake Road in Abingdon around 1 a.m. on Wednesday after receiving reports of gunshots.

Witnesses informed deputies that a dark-colored SUV had fired shots following a “confrontation earlier in the evening,” as stated in the release.

Investigators found a 9mm shell casing near the road and collected it as evidence.

During a follow-up investigation later in the day, a Washington County, Virginia deputy went to a Bristol, Tennessee home with the Sullivan County Sheriff’s Office’s help. A search at the home found a Dodge Durango that is believed to have been involved in the drive-by shooting, along with more reported evidence.

According to the sheriff’s office, Logan Widner, 20, “admitted to his involvement” in the shooting.

Widner was charged with the following:

  • Reckless handling of a firearm
  • Shoot in a public place, not cause injury
  • Shooting of a firearm from a vehicle

The sheriff’s office stated that Widner turned himself in and was being held at the Southwest Virginia Regional Jail on a $2,500 bond as of 3 p.m.
