Officers responded to a home in a southwest neighborhood of the city about 1:30 p.m., Aug. 13 for a report of a gunshot. Inside they found a man suffering from a gunshot wound, according to a department press release issued Aug. 15.

First responders took the patient to Logan Health Medical Center for treatment. He is still in critical condition, officials said.
