The gunfire occurred a short time earlier on the 1800 block of Pear St. After the apparent ambush, the wounded man ran to his home on the 1700 block of Orthodox St., where a relative picked him up and took him to the hospital.

Police reportedly found shell casings and a bullet where the gunfire occurred but they don’t know the motive and don’t have a description of a suspect. ••
