Good morning in the news this morning.

Police are searching for a gunman who left a man critically injured in an early morning shooting Monday in South Philadelphia. The shooting happened at 1 a.m. in the 1 a.m. in the 1,300 block of Fitzwater Street. Police found the victim lying on the sidewalk outside of the home where he was going to spend the night. He was shot multiple times in the back and in the back of his torso and legs. He was taken to Jefferson Hospital in critical condition. Police say he's only 22 years old. According to investigators, the victims got into an argument with the shooter

at Sonoco Gas Station in the 800 block of South Broad Street. The location is about two blocks

away from the scene of the shooting. Police said the shooter followed the victim as he walked to

the home where he was going to spend the night. Investigators said the shooter fired at least

six shots from close range at the victim as he was about to enter the home.

You could see bullet holes in the front door.

A 61-year-old woman was inside of the home.

Police say she was upstairs and wasn't hurt.

Investigators only have a vague description of the suspect saying that he was a man wearing dark clothing.

Police are reviewing surveillance video that they hope will help them track down the suspect.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police.
