MIDDLETOWN — When the Middletown SWAT team on Thursday morning responded to a shots-fired call, it located an 18-year-old male with gunshot wounds to his leg. The incident took place outside of an apartment in the 8300 block of Hendrickson Road.

Police were notified around 8 a.m. that shots had been fired in the area, said Police Chief David Birk. No occupants were inside the apartment and police also searched a crawl space connecting all four apartments inside.

Birk said the gunshot victim was taken to Atrium Medical Center and is being uncooperative with police.
