A 22-year-old man who was shot in the forehead with a handgun Tuesday is out of surgery and recovering, but still not cooperating with police.

“He is going to survive,” said Staff Sgt. Ken Bryden Wednesday. “He was shot in the forehead and the round entered and exited the forehead from my understanding.”

Bryden said the bullet exited through the brow and the 22-year-old victim, whose name has not been released, was lucid even before the surgery.

The shooting occurred Tuesday at about 5:21 p.m. on the 2800 block of Cedarwood Drive near Herongate Mall.

Bryden said police believe the two men involved knew each other and had an argument that ended up in shots fired. Police believe there were two guns involved, but so far have only found a .40-calibre handgun.

The recovered gun had been thrown into the green bin of a 22-year-old neighbour, who said the gunshots woke him up.
