Two men are dead and two others are hospitalized after a shooting at a home in Woodbridge, Virginia.

Officers are looking for a suspect who left the scene in a car, authorities said.

The shooting happened inside the home in the 14700 block of Birchdale Avenue, where police responded shortly before 2:30 p.m.

“The victims were found both inside a residence and outside,” Prince William County police Assistant Chief Kevin Hughart said. “So, we don’t know fully, exactly what happened from the moment it started until the end.”

A man found outside the home died at the scene. Three other men found inside the home were taken to the hospital, where one of them was pronounced dead.

Police said it was a targeted shooting.

"The incident was isolated to the residence and the suspect is not believed to be in the area. This incident does not appear to be random," Prince William County police said in a news release.

No arrests have been made.

Residents should expect a police presence in the area, police said.
