Man critical after Hunting Park shooting

POSTED: Monday, March 26, 2012, 5:28 PM

Police are investigating a Monday afternoon shooting in Hunting Park that left a man in critical condition.

An unidentified gunman opened fire on Marshall Street near Luzerne just after 3:30 p.m., wounding a 30-year-old man twice in the chest, police said. The shooter is described as a black man who wore a blue shirt and jeans, and was last seen running west on Luzerne toward 9th Street.

Medics rushed the victim to Temple University Hospital, where he was listed in critical condition.

    Make sure you spell things properly Dr. Rich, I would hate for an astute academic such as yourself to be discredited over poor spelling on internet posts.

    The complancy of our leaders to almost daily murders is offensive. Why is life so unimportant in this city?

    It's a shame it couldn't have been a white person that shot him, it could have furthered our agenda. Maybe next time.
