The incident happened on Saturday, Feb. 10 around 3 p.m., when shots were fired at the Kensico Cemetery in Valhalla at 273 Lakeview Ave., according to Mount Pleasant Police Chief Paul Oliva.
After receiving several 911 calls reporting the shooting, officers rushed to an area in the cemetery near the Tower Gate off Grasslands Road (Route 100) and determined that around 20 gunshots had been fired shortly after the conclusion of an internment ceremony.
As police arrived at the cemetery, officers detained several vehicles to determine if any of their occupants had either seen the shooting or been involved in it.
As of Monday, Feb. 12, an investigation into the shooting had determined that no one left at the scene had been struck by gunfire and that the suspects involved were not from Mount Pleasant.
