The Statesville Police Department said Hoover was shot in his upper torso.

He was wearing a bulletproof vest, but Onley said the bullet hit an unprotected area.

The police department said Hoover was rushed to Atrium Health Main for surgery where he continues to recover.

“Luckily, the surgeon said it missed any vital organs they were able to go in, remove the bullet, and he’s been recovering,” Onley said.

Hoover is expected to make a full recovery.
