Man shot in Olney

A man was shot and critically wounded in Olney earlier tonight, police said.

The victim, whose name wasn't released, was wounded in the back about 7:45 p.m., following an argument that unfolded in a parking lot near the Banana Lounge, on Rising Sun Avenue near Clarkson Avenue, an investigator said. The victim was admitted to Albert Einstein Medical Center in critical condition.

The gunman fled in a white car, possibly a newer Lexus or Toyota, with chrome rims, the investigator said. Tipsters can contact Northwest Detectives at 215-686-3353.
