The 26-year-old showed up at St. Francis Medical Center with a gunshot wound to his left forearm shortly after 2:30 p.m. Police are unsure whether he shot himself.
“It could be possible,” said Lt. Mark Kieffer, a police spokesman. “No scene was located and there was no 911 call for shots fired.”
The East Ward resident walked into the St. Francis emergency room alone. Hospital staff called police and notified them of the shooting, Kieffer said.
The victim was “extremely uncooperative” and would not give police any information, according to Kieffer.
Anyone with information on the case should call police at (609) 989-4170, or the Confidential Tip Line at (609) 989-3663.
