BRADDOCK (KDKA) -- The Allegheny County Police Department's Homicide Unit responded to a report of a shooting Sunday morning.

First responders arrived on the scene in the 1300 block of Braddock Avenue just after 9 a.m. to find a 21-year-old man who was suffering from a gunshot wound in his car. The man was transported to a local hospital where he was last listed in stable condition.

There was another passenger in the vehicle, who was not injured, but taken to the hospital as a precaution.

"Fortunately, one of our officers was in the close vicinity. He got a visual description of the car and put in a BOLO," Braddock Mayor John Fetterman said. "It's my hope that the individual or individuals responsible for this are apprehended and brought to justice."

Homicide detectives are currently investigating.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Allegheny County Police tip line at 1-833-ALL-TIPS.
