A man was taken to hospital by ambulance after reports Tuesday of gunshots at a downtown apartment building.

The victim — upright and covering his right eye — was loaded into an ambulance after police responded to the building at 10408 92 St. at about 9 a.m. Tuesday. Later in the morning two people were walked out of the building in handcuffs and driven away in separate vehicles.

An AHS spokesperson confirmed paramedics transported a man to hospital in serious but stable condition.

About nine police vehicles surrounded the scene and officers were later looking for two suspects they believe forced their way into a suite.

Multiple residents from a walk-up building across the street were out on their balconies, trying to get a view of the activity. Resident Dennis Vogel said he heard a gunshot in the morning, noting he has seen police vehicles outside the building before.
