Dunkin' Employee Injured In Randolph Shooting; Police Search For Suspect
RANDOLPH (CBS) – One man was seriously injured in a gas-station shooting early Sunday morning in Randolph.
Police said they are looking for a suspect who entered the Mobil Gas Station on North Main Street a little after 1 a.m. and got into a fight with a man inside the station. The suspect allegedly left the gas station, then fired three shots into the building.
The man injured was working at the gas station's Dunkin' when he was shot.
A statement from Dunkin' said, in part: "The safety and well-being of our franchisees, their employees and customers are our top priority. Our thoughts are with the Dunkin' franchised employee who is being treated for non-life threatening injuries. We are working with our franchisee who is cooperating fully with the local authorities investigating this incident."

The suspect fled the scene in a 2007 gray Honda Accord. The car was found unoccupied in Dorchester later on Sunday morning.
The victim's injuries are serious but not life-threatening.
