Police are investigating after a 32-year-old man arrived at a local hospital with gunshot wounds early Sunday morning.

According to police, officers initially responded to a report of a shooting at about 12:45 a.m. along the 1200 block of South 34th Street in the city's Grays Ferry neighborhood.

However, responding officers found a Mercedes Benz along the street that had been struck by at least two bullets. But, there was no victim at that location, officials said.

Shortly afterward, a 32-year-old man who police believe to have been involved in this shooting arrived in a nearby hospital suffering from gunshot wounds to the neck, shoulder and face.

The victim has been listed in critical condition and, officers said, an investigation is ongoing.
