The victim, a 16 year old young man from Warwick, received a gunshot wound to the upper body and an injury to his head (not gunshot related). The teenager subsequently attended KEMH and received treatment for his injuries. He was later released. A car on the premises was also damaged; it is believed the two incidents may be linked.
