Double Shooting in Utica, One in Critical Condition

***Double Shooting- 1600 Block of Elm Street- Utica***

Early Sunday morning at around 12:53 am, Utica Police responded to St. Elizabeth's Hospital for a patient that walked into the emergency room with a gunshot wound to his back. Shortly thereafter a second patient came to the same emergency room with a grazing gunshot wound to his arm.

Both teenage victims were uncooperative with police and law enforcement later learned about that the shootings occurred outside a house party at 1656 Elm Street. Several potential witnesses were located- all were also uncooperative and refused to provide any information about the shootings.

The 17-year-old victim with a gunshot wound to his back is currently in critical condition.
