City police on Tuesday morning confirmed a shooting occurred around 8:15 p.m. Monday in Flanigan Park at the corner of Little League Boulevard and Walnut Street.
Police said in a statement Tuesday that they were able to recover evidence at the scene and are looking for witnesses. A short time after the investigation began, police responded to a call at UPMC Susquehanna’s Williamsport Regional Medical Center, where a young man was being treated for a gunshot wound to his leg. The statement from police said the wound was not life-threatening. The victim was released after being treated.
“This incident does not appear to be random,” the statement from police said. “A follow-up investigation, in this case, is currently being conducted by the Williamsport Bureau of Police Criminal Investigation Unit.”
