Winnipeg police are looking for suspects involved in two separate shootings Wednesday.
The first report of shots fired came in shortly after 5:30 a.m. at a home in the 400 block of Maryland Street.
Police found a 29-year-old man with a gunshot wound.
Officers provided medical care before the victim was rushed to hospital in unstable condition. He has since been upgraded to stable condition.
Police were then called to a report of shots fired and an assault near a restaurant in the 600 block of St. James Street just before 7 p.m.
Investigators say a group of people left the restaurant and got into a ridesharing vehicle, where they say a “disagreement ensued.”
