Shooting Investigation

CAMBRIDGE, Md. – An investigation is underway after one person was injured in a shooting early Saturday morning in Cambridge.

Just after 4:30 a.m., officers were called to the 800 block of Pine Street for a “Shot Spotter Alert”. Officers arrived at the scene to find what appeared to be blood on the roadway and followed the trail, which led to a residence in the 600 block of Moores Avenue, where a 19-year-old man was found suffering from a gunshot wound to his leg.

The victim was taken to TidalHealth Peninsula Regional in Salisbury for treatment of his non-life-threatening injury.

Further investigation revealed that the victim had been at a bar in Easton and was given a ride to Cambridge after leaving the bar. The victim only reported that he heard approximately five gunshots before realizing he had been shot. It was reported that there was a black SUV-style vehicle, possibly an Acura, driving through the area at the time of the shooting. It is unknown at this time if the black SUV-style vehicle is involved in this incident.

This is an ongoing investigation, and anyone with information is asked to contact Cambridge Police at 410-228-3333.
