CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas â Two different shootings happened around 10:30 p.m. last night, prompting Corpus Christi police to respond to two separate scenes.
One shooting happened at the Buccaneer Apartments on 100 Buccaneer Drive late Friday night. Officers believe it may have been caused as a result of an attempted robbery. The complex is across the street from the Corpus Christi Doctors Regional Medical Center.
After police received several phone calls, an 18-year-old man was dropped off at the Doctors Regional Medical Center and treated for his wounds. Though they would not comment on the nature of where he was shot or how many times, they did say the victim is now in stable condition.
