Evansville Police are investigating a shooting that left a man wounded in three places.
The EPD says officers were called to the Circle K gas station at Weinbach and Washington at about 2:15 Friday morning for a “Fight in Progress” between two men.
In a release, Sgt. Nick Winsett said both subjects were gone when officers arrived at the scene. But while speaking to witnesses, one officers heard three gunshots to the south of his location.
Winsett said police found a victim from the fight sitting in a car in the 1100 block of S. Lincoln Park Dr. He had been wounded in the chest, side, and hand.
Police rendered medical aid before the victim was taken to St. Vincent Hospital with injuries that were not believed to be life-threatening.
The EPD said the suspect was on the run.
