On Saturday, April 27th, 2013 at 3:13 AM Duluth Police were called to a residence in the 2200 block of West 2nd Street on the report of a shooting. Officers arrived and located a 27 year old male with a single gunshot wound to the chest.
Initial investigation revealed that a resident had a gathering there with several individuals. After the victim was shot, the suspects fled the area. This does not appear to be a random incident.

The Duluth Police Department is following up on several leads. If anyone has any information about this incident they are asked to call 911. This is an active investigation. No further information is available at this time.
