“Police visited the hospital and there they observed twenty-five-year-old Keshawn Dennison suffering from gun-shot wounds. What police gathered so far is that Mr. Dennison was walking just before nine at the corner of Antelope Street and Laura Dunn Street when he was approached by a male person. The male person pulled out a firearm and fired shots at his direction causing the injuries to him. I was told this morning that he was treated and he has been discharged from the hospital.
