Tampa police say two men known to each other got into an argument that led to a shooting Monday morning, leaving one of them in critical condition.
TAMPA, Fla. — Tampa police are investigating a shooting that sent one man to the hospital in critical condition.
Officers said this happened before 9:30 a.m. Monday in the area of Kennedy Blvd. and North Meridian Ave., where a man in his mid-50s was found with a gunshot wound. He was taken to the hospital, where he is in critical condition, but is stable.
TPD says the shooter, another man in his 50s, was detained and a gun was taken into evidence. All parties are accounted for and there are no other suspects.
Police believe this was not a random act of violence and both men are known to each other. They also say this shooting stems from an incident between the two that happened on Friday.
Westbound traffic along Kennedy Blvd. is currently being diverted to allow for the investigation.
Drivers should seek alternate routes.
