Northumberland OPP say two arrest warrants have been issued for suspects wanted in a shooting last month.

Police say around 10:45 a.m. on March 24, an unknown person in a vehicle pulled into the Northumberland Hills Hospital property and dropped off a man who was suffering from a gunshot wound.

The investigation was initially under the Cobourg Police Service, who stated a few days later that the OPP would assume the case.

On Thursday, police said they are looking for two men who “pose a risk to public safety.”
