Little information was known for most of the day Monday. Winchester police initially said only that they were at a "crime scene" and that state police crime services had been requested.
School officials had sent an email to parents at the Ambrose Elementary School around 7:45 a.m. saying there was a "police investigation" happening across the street from the school "that may impact student drop off." The school said they had no additional information about the incident but that police assured them that it was safe to have school.
Photos from the scene showed yellow crime scene tape surrounding the driveway of a local home, with markers on the ground indicating that gunshots were fired.
The investigation is ongoing.
