Arriving officers located the adult male victim with multiple gunshot wounds to his torso and upper legs. They immediately began to render lifesaving aid by applying chest seals and tourniquets, until medics arrived at the scene.

Witnesses reported a possible actor fleeing the scene in an unknown direction.
The Mobile Crime Unit was called to process evidence, including recovered shell casings and reviewing area camera footage.
