Greenville Police are searching for two suspects they say shot a man in the parking lot of a grocery store.
Officials say that it happened Saturday night around 11:26 in the parking lot of the Mid Town Grocery on 1308 West 14th Avenue. Police say they spoke with the victim, Travis Blow, at Vidant Medical Center where he was being treated.
