Police: Driver with gunshot wound crashed into 2 vehicles

A man driving with a gunshot wound to his arm crashed into two vehicles on Central Ave. near Eubank Friday afternoon.

The crashes happened just before 5:30 p.m. Friday. Police say the driver was transported to UNMH and is expected to be OK.

A passenger in the vehicle the man was driving fled the scene of the crashes and the driver was uncooperative with police when asked when or why he was shot.

Police said they received a call about a shooting at the nearby Deluxe Inn around the same time the man crashed into the vehicles, but have not directly linked the two scenes at this time.

Police said the passenger was not located.
