University Drive was closed in the area of Forest Hills Shopping Center near Hill Street as police investigated.
The shooting shocked and angered those in the community.
"When you have young men or young women - whoever was involved - that start shooting is ridiculous," said community activist Victoria Peterson. "Now we have to worry whether we are going to get shot at because anybody that's sitting out here could get shot from a stray bullet."
Thomas Boyd has lived in Durham for two years and frequently shops at the Compare Foods on University Drive.
"I feel so sad that this is happening in my neighborhood," Boyd said. "I hate to see anyone lose their life."
