City Police said the victim, whose name they did not release, was brought to St. Luke’s Cornwall Hospital by a friend just before 11 p.m. That was shortly after police received a call of shots fired in the area of 190 North Miller Street.
The victim sustained a single gunshot wound and was admitted for treatment.
Officers investigated and found a loaded handgun at the curb on North Miller, but are not sure if that was the gun used in the incident.
