Three Aurora men injured in Sunday shooting

Three people were shot early Sunday morning when an unidentified male walked up a driveway and started shooting.

The three Aurora victims were all men. One, age 21, was shot in the thigh. A second victim, 27, was shot in the foot. The third victim, 18, was also shot in the thigh. None of the injuries were life-threatening, according to an email from Dan Ferrelli, media relations manager for the city of Aurora.

The three victims were with other people in the rear of a residence on the 500 block of East Benton Street when the shooting occurred around 3:13 a.m. The incident did not appear to be random and is possibly gang-related, the email said.

In a separate incident on Saturday around 11:45 p.m., shots were fired on the 400 block of South State Street. No one was injured. It has not been determined if the shootings are related.
