Kingston police are looking for a suspect after officers recently became aware of a shooting that reportedly occurred in the early morning hours of June 2, according to a news release.
Police say a man shot another man with a handgun at a home on Rideau Street in downtown Kingston.
According to police, the man received minor injuries, did not go to the hospital and did not report the incident to law enforcement.

The shooter has been described as more than six feet tall. According to police, he was reportedly wearing dark clothing with a cover over his face.
