Police continue to investigate an incident that left a 34-year-old man injured with a gunshot wound to his abdomen in Duluth's Lakeside neighborhood Saturday night.
Officers blocked off several streets after responding to a neighbor's report of an injured man near 40th Avenue East and McCulloch Street at 10:52 p.m. Saturday. The wounded man, whose identity has not been made public, was transported to a local hospital where, Duluth public information officer Jim Hansen said, he was listed in stable condition Sunday.
According to police, the man said he was shot trying to intervene in a domestic dispute inside a vehicle between people he didn't know. After searching McCullough Street between 40th and 41st avenues east, officers were unable to find a crime scene.
Police found a weapon they believe was used in the shooting in the snow in a wooded area nearby.
Although police are continuing their investigation, they say the public is not at risk.
