Just after 11:30 p.m. Thursday night, several calls to 911 reported a shooting in the 1600 block of Crawford Street.

Police, fire and ambulance were dispatched to the scene. Shortly thereafter a radio call from a first responder ordered Air Care to be called in. A few minutes later that call was canceled.

The victim was reported to have died of their injuries at an area hospital.
