A 24-year-old Wilmington man shot in a drive-by attack early Saturday is expected to survive, police said Monday.
The victim was walking in the 300 block of West 14th Street at about 2 a.m. when a car drove by the victim and a suspect inside the car opened fire, striking the victim in the upper torso, according to police.

Neither the victim not any other witnesses were able to give a suspect description or a description of the car used in the attack, Pratt said.
The motive for the shooting also remains under investigation, Pratt said.
