Local police say they haven’t identified any suspects after a shooting in Ottawa’s Overbrook neighbourhood on Tuesday night left a 25-year-old man with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
The man, who was shot near Queen Mary and Lola streets around 9 p.m., has since been “unco-operative” with investigators, according to the Ottawa Police Service.
“As of right now, he is unco-operative just in helping our investigators understand what happened and locating a suspect,” police spokesperson Const. Amy Gagnon said.
