SPRINGFIELD — The victim in a Wednesday night shooting on Pomona Street in the city's Forest Park neighborhood suffered a serious injury to his torso but the injuries are not considered life-threatening, police said.

The man, whose name was not disclosed to the press, was stuck once in the upper left torso in the 8:40 p.m. shooting at Pomona Street and Sumner Avenue, said police spokesman Sgt. John Delaney.

Police found the victim lying in the driveway at 618 Sumner Ave. surrounded by a large crowd, Delaney said. The home is on the corner of Pomona Street, roughly three blocks east of The X.

Witnesses said there had apparently been a fight between the victim and another man in a driveway on Pomona Street. The shooter pulled a gun and opened fire. The victim yelled that he had been shot and fell to the ground, and the shooter fled, Delaney said.

The fight was apparently part of an ongoing dispute from earlier in the day. "The dispute resumed and shots were fired," he said.

Witnesses said they heard four shots, Delaney said.

No description of the suspect was available.

Detectives spent much of the night processing the crime scene for evidence. Investigators were seen using metal detectors to search through the snow.
