SALISBURY, Md. - Officials say that they believe an early morning drive-by shooting and house fire in Salisbury are related.

Police are currently investigating an apparent attempted murder and arson.

Gunfire reportedly rang out on the 500-block of Swan Road just before 1:00 a.m. Monday morning, shortly after the house went up in flames. While there were no human injuries, Maryland State Police confirms that a dog was killed. No details yet on how it died.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Wicomico Bureau of Investigations at 410-548-4898.
