Nice guy, bad timing
Police were dispatched to Mercy Hospital on a report of a gunshot victim on Jan. 26. When police arrived, the victim gave a statement about a shooting that took place that night. The victim was with his friend, and they went to confront another male in regard to a female. They met up with four other males, and an argument broke out. The victim tried to break up the fight, and one of the men pulled a gun out. The victim struggled with the man over control of the gun, and during the struggle, the gun was fired, hitting the victim’s leg. Everyone at the scene left, and when the victim felt it was safe, he left in a friend’s car with friends. He then went to the emergency room, and his friends drove away.
