HARTFORD — Police say they are investigating a shooting near the West Hartford line that left a man in critical condition early Tuesday.
Officers were called around 1:50 a.m. to the 1000 block of Capitol Avenue after the city's ShotSpotter system registered gunfire, Hartford Police Lt. Aaron Boisvert said.
At the scene, police found a man in his 20s "suffering from a gunshot wound," Boisvert said. The shooting happened outside a building at the intersection with James Street.
The victim was taken to the hospital, where he was listed in critical condition, he said.
Police don't have a motive for the shooting, Boisvert said. The department's major crimes and crime scene divisions are investigating.
Anyone with any information can call the Hartford Police Department tip line at 860-722-TIPS (8477).
