The Saskatoon police are investigating what appears to be an early morning shooting.

Police were notified at 7:30 a.m. that 20-year-old male victim was in an alley in the rear of the 2400 block of Kelvin Avenue.

He was suffering from injuries that were originally reported as a possible hit and run, vehicle/pedestrian collision.

However, when police and ambulance arrived, it was discovered the male had been shot.

He was transported to hospitals with serious injuries that are not believed to be life-threatening.

Investigators believe the shooting took place in the same area and are now canvassing the neighbourhood.

Anyone with information is asked to phone Saskatoon police or Crimestoppers.
