Suspect sought after man, 18, injured in overnight shooting in Aurora

Aurora police are looking for witnesses and information about a shooting early Sunday that left an 18-year-old Montgomery man critically injured.

Police responded about 12:30 a.m. to the 400 block of East Park Avenue and found the victim, who suffered multiple gunshot wounds, sitting in a vehicle parked in a driveway, police said on Facebook.

Aurora Fire Department paramedics took the victim to a hospital where he underwent surgery and continues to be treated, police said.
