More information has been released about the shooting overnight Wednesday night into early Thursday morning.

According to Paris Police Department Information Officer Curtis Garrett, police were called to the emergency room at PRMC around 2:35 a.m. for reports of a shooting victim.

“The 30-year-old victim was uncooperative with the officer and said he did not know where he was when he was shot,” Garrett said. “The victim has a non-life-threatening wound on his upper left arm.”

Shortly after this, a second gunshot victim arrived at the emergency room and reported someone was beating on his front door on 6th Street S.E. demanding to be let inside.

“This 38-year-old victim told the person to leave and then heard a gunshot and felt something strike him in the abdomen,” Garrett said. “The victim reported that he then shot through the front door and heard the person on the porch scream.”

Garrett said no further information is available and the investigation continues.
