MANSFIELD - An 18-year-old man suffered a gunshot wound to his right upper shoulder at 1:22 a.m. Thursday at 279 Sheridan Ave. as suspects fired upon the house and garage.
Mansfield Police Capt. Shari Robertson said, The victim was in the garage area when the shooting occurred. It is my understanding that the wound was not life threatening and officers provided medical aid at the scene by applying pressure to the wound to help stop bleeding, prior to EMS arriving. Officers contacted witnesses at the scene, however, they were not very cooperative, nor was the victim, Robertson said.
