Annapolis police responded to a shooting Friday evening on Madison Street and found a man suffering from non-life-threatening injuries.
Police were called at 5:15 for a reported shooting in the 1100 block of Madison Street. There officers discovered a 30-year-old Annapolis man who had apparently been shot in the mouth, police said Saturday. He was transported to the Maryland Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore with non-life threatening injuries, police said.
“We are investigating the circumstances of the incident. There were a lot of people out in the neighborhood and we are reaching out to the community,” city police spokeswoman Sgt. Amy Miguez said. “A lot of people in the community know officers. But they can provide information anonymously.”
