- Officers investigate a shooting: On Dec. 22, 2023 at approximately 6:40 p.m., officers were dispatched to the 6100 block of Atlantic Avenue regarding a shots call. The preliminary investigation indicates a shooting occurred after two groups of male adult subjects were in a physical altercation. The suspect(s) and subjects left the area before police arrived. A few hours later, officers were dispatched to a local hospital regarding a male adult subject with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to the lower body. The victim was uncooperative in providing details of the incident, however officers determined the subject was part of the incident that occurred earlier. No other injuries were reported. The investigation is ongoing.
This information is preliminary and is intended for early information use rather than being a formal investigative report.
