A 20-year-old man is in stable condition after he was shot multiple times in Bristol on Thursday night.

Police said the man suffered gunshot wounds to his lower body before officers received multiple reports of shots being fired in the area of Davis Drive at about 11:19 p.m., according to the Bristol Police Department.

Officers responded to the area and spoke to multiple witnesses after securing the crime scene, but they could not locate any suspects or a victim. Shortly thereafter, investigators learned a man admitted himself to Bristol Hospital for gunshot injuries, police said. He has been listed in stable condition.

Bristol Lt. Michael Duval, who oversees the Criminal Investigation Division that is handling the case, said patrol officers were able to speak to the victim late Thursday, but detectives have not yet had the chance to interview him. The victim was not able to identify the shooter, leaving detectives with very little to go off of, Duval said.

“At this point, we have almost nothing,” Duval said.

Duval said the injuries to the victim did not appear to be life-threatening. He also said it’s too early to know if the man was targeted.
