At 3:17 a.m. Sunday morning Quincy Police and Adams County EMS received a call in reference to a subject being shot. The initial caller gave a different location for the shooting and officers were dispatched to that location. At 3:20 a.m. a second 911 call was received giving the actual location of the shooting as the area of 9th and Hampshire. Officers then responded to that location and located the male victim with a gunshot wound. Officers provided first aid until the scene was secure and EMS crews could safely approach, which occurred at 3:24 a.m. The victim was transported to Blessing Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. A QPD Investigations Division detectives and crime scene personnel were called in to assist with the investigation. The Adams County Sheriff’s Department also assisted with the initial response. The investigation is ongoing. Preliminary information seems to indicate this was not a random shooting.
