Vick cooperating in Va. shooting probe

Police say Vick isn't a suspect in the shooting, in which an unidentified person was injured after attending his Thursday night birthday bash at a restaurant in the city's Town Center entertainment district, The (Norfolk, Va.) Virginian-Pilot reported.

But Vick's attorney, Lawrence H. Woodward Jr., told the newspaper the quarterback was voluntarily cooperating with the investigation and visited with detectives Monday morning.

Woodward asserted Vick left the party about 30 minutes before shots were fired on the street outside the Guadalajara restaurant.

While police hadn't identified the victim, The Virginian-Pilot said Quanis Phillips -- Vick's childhood friend and onetime dogfighting co-conspirator -- was ejected from the party before the shooting and later ended up Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital with a bullet wound.

A hospital representative said Phillips was discharged Friday afternoon.
No suspects had been charged in the shooting, the newspaper said.
