Shooting at Mary and Oregon

On the morning of October 27 around 1:00 a.m., the Evansville Police Department was called to the hospital for a report of a male who had been shot in the shoulder. 

  When officers arrived they spoke with the victim and a witness. They claim they were walking in the area of Mary and Oregon Streets (both were unsure on exact location) when a black passenger car pulled up to them and started shooting. One of the rounds struck the victim in the shoulder. 

  After being struck, the victim and the witness arrived at the hospital for treatment. Neither the victim nor the witness knew who shot at them or who owned the vehicle. 

  The victim did not wish to assist in the investigation any further and declined to pursue charges against the suspect. The victim’s wounds are non life-threatening.
