Two Ann Arbor men were arrested Wednesday night, suspected of shooting a man in the leg during a drug deal in the 400 block of Thompson Street, Ann Arbor police said.

The 42-year-old victim, who lives in Ypsilanti, was taken by ambulance to University of Michigan Hospital, but police did not have an update on his condition this morning.

Police spokeswoman Lt. Renee Bush said the victim met with the men about 10:50 p.m., planning to sell them marijuana. That's when they attempted to rob him and shot him, Bush said.

Bush said she did not know how many shots were fired. Detectives are investigating whether anyone else was involved, she said.
