The man with the gunshot wound was taken to hospital by ambulance and the condition of his injuries is still unclear.

Shortly afterwards, another man was found with a gunshot wound in a residential area not far away. He too was taken care of by paramedics and went to hospital. This man’s injury status is also unclear.

The police are working to find out what happened by talking to people who may have heard or seen something of importance to the investigation.
