Police are investigating after a shooting seriously injured one person early Monday morning.

According to Sgt. Steve McClintick with the St. Joseph Police Department, shortly before 2 a.m., several shots were fired in the 1200 block area of Wilton Drive.

A man in his mid-20s was hit by a gunshot in his midsection. He was transported to the hospital for treatment of serious injuries. McClintick said the man is reportedly out of surgery, stable and in recovery.

McClintick said the shooting appeared to stem from property damage incidents going back and forth throughout the evening between several juveniles which built up to the shooting.

There are multiple suspects in the incident. An adult teenager and a juvenile were taken into custody on investigation charges not related to the shooting.
