VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) – Two men were shot outside the Club Aqua on Virginia Beach Boulevard Sunday morning, and police released surveillance video Tuesday that shows the crime unfold.

During the video you can see the two suspects run up to a car and they both open fire. Officers say two people were injured.

“I was stunned it was right in my backyard, ” said Virginia Beach’s Tracy Smith. “It was like a run by shooting, ” Smith added. “Probably somebody just being angry.”

Smith works at the appliance store in the shopping center. He too just saw the video for the first time and can’t believe what he was seeing.

“It’s very senseless, ” Smith said.

Smith’s business was closed when this took place. Police want citizens to focus on an orange car. It’s the one the suspects got out of and then back into after the shooting. Officers say one victim was found at the scene, another was found a short time later. Both are expected to make full recoveries.

“It is kind of disturbing, ” Smith added.

Smith says his business hasn’t had issues with Aqua in the past, but others have. We heard stories of windows that were shot out, parking issues and beer cans left behind. 10 On Your Side dug into our archives and found at least two other serious shootings within the last year.

“We do have plenty of police security and they check on us and keep an eye on us, ” Smith said. “That makes me feel safe.”
