District 5 is investigating a domestic shooting that left a 48-year-old male critically injured around 7 a.m. on November 28 in the 5400 block of Dr. Martin Luther King, Dr.
A preliminary investigation revealed the 48-year-old man was shot by his 23-year-old stepson after the stepson observed the 48-year-old man assaulting his mother, who is the 48-year-old man’s wife.
The 23-year-old stepson remained at the scene and surrendered to officers. The 48-year-old man was transported to the hospital where he was listed in critical/unstable condition. The woman complained of pain but refused medical attention. The investigation is ongoing.
