A shooting is under investigation at the Townsend Square Apartments on Wednesday night.
At approximately 9:30 PM, a call for a reported shooting was received in the 1100 block of Townsend Boulevard. Radio traffic indicated that a 17-year old male suffered a gunshot wound to the foot. It wasn’t clear if the incident was accidental or the result of an altercation.
