BALTIMORE — Baltimore Police said two men suffer from shooting injuries Thursday morning, on the city's Westside.
At 12:04 a.m., officers responded to reports of a shooting in the 2100 block of West Lexington Street. When officers arrived, they found a 35-year-old male suffering from multiple gunshot wounds to the body.
The victim was transported to an area hospital where he is listed in critical condition.
Around 45 minutes later, officers were called to an area hospital for reports of a walk-in shooting victim. There, they found a 31 year-old male suffering from a gunshot wound to the shoulder.
Police said the victim's condition is currently unknown.
