One man recovering after shooting at Salinas apartment complex

Salinas police said a 24-year-old man was shot twice on Orchard Avenue in Salinas Monday night.

The driver, described as a heavy set male wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and checkered shorts, got out of the car and began firing.

The victim was struck twice. Bullets also struck a nearby apartment and the laundry room. The victim was transported to a local hospital.
