Rochester, NY – Just after 5:45 p.m., officers responded to the area of South Goodman Avenue and Monroe Avenue following reports of a shooting. Upon arrival, they found a 24-year-old male, not a Monroe County resident, suffering from at least one gunshot wound to the upper body. The victim was quickly transported to Strong Memorial Hospital by AMR for treatment of serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

Investigations revealed that the shooting actually occurred in the 100 block of Sheppard Street. The victim was then driven to the corner of Monroe Avenue and South Goodman Street, where officers located him. The circumstances leading up to the shooting remain under investigation.

While the suspected shooter has not yet been located, police have detained at least two other individuals in a related matter. No further information is available at this time as the investigation is ongoing. Authorities are urging anyone with information to call 911.
