Madison police are currently investigating a shooting on West Washington Avenue near Bedford Street.
According to witnesses on the scene, four to six shots were fired just before 6 p.m near the Kennedy Building, which houses the Mental Health Center of Dane County.
Ald. Mike Verveer, District 4, confirmed that the victim of the shooting was shot by someone he or she knows. The victim’s injuries are not life threatening.
Verveer added the police are certain who the suspect is and are on the lookout for the individual. Authorities believe the suspect is out of the downtown area.
More than a dozen squad cars were at the scene. Police were interviewing eye witnesses near Kelly’s Market seeking details on the incident.
