GARY — Police said Tuesday they continue to search for one of three people wounded in separate shootings during the holiday weekend.

The missing victim knocked on an apartment door about 10:20 p.m. Monday in the 1100 block of West Fifth Avenue and asked a resident for help, Lt. Dawn Westerfield said.

The resident let the man inside, but a second man arrived and purportedly took the wounded man away to seek medical help, she said.

Police found evidence indicating a person had been wounded, Westerfield said. However, police received no notifications from local hospitals regarding anyone associated with the shooting.

Police also issued a "be on the lookout" alert to other departments, but the gunshot victim has not been located, Westerfield said.

On Sunday, police were called about noon to the 500 block of Buchanan Street for a report of a gunshot victim but could not locate him.

About 30 minutes later, an 18-year-old Munster man wounded in the shooting showed up a local hospital to seek treatment, police said. He was shot in the hand.
